The Uppsala Veil

A city of shadows. A woman vanished. A secret buried beneath centuries of silence.

When renowned archaeologist Elin Törn disappears on a frostbitten December night, the quiet city of Uppsala trembles with unanswered questions. Her last known location? The ancient burial mounds of Gamla Uppsala—a place whispered about in myths, guarded by time, and cloaked in Nordic legend.

Detective Ingrid Holm, brilliant yet scarred, is assigned the case. But what begins as a routine investigation quickly turns into something far stranger. Elin’s cryptic notes speak of runes that glow under moonlight, a hidden chamber lost to history, and a ritual that should never be completed.

Teaming up with Leo Vikström—a reclusive language expert drawn by a dream he can't explain—Ingrid is pulled into a maze of forgotten symbols, folklore, and chilling truths. As snow deepens and the aurora shimmers over the cathedral spires, they must race against time to uncover what lies beneath Uppsala… before it awakens again.

The Uppsala Veil is a haunting, slow-burning mystery blending ancient magic with modern-day suspense. Steeped in Scandinavian atmosphere and rich in myth, it explores the secrets we bury—and those that refuse to stay buried.

Fans of dark folklore, slow-burning thrillers, and Nordic crime fiction will find themselves spellbound until the final page.
