When Dr. Robinson's experimental rocket crash-lands on Mars in 1949, its lone pilot, Peter Martin, is captured by the planet's amphibian inhabitants and subjected to a thought-scanning device that reveals his shameful past. The Martians witness how Martin committed fraud, murder, and betrayal on Earth to cover his crimes—and now must decide his fate.

When a U.N. pilot's plane is shot down over a Russian-occupied fjord, he's rescued by local villagers—and haunted by vivid dreams of a mysterious woman named Valencia who promises to guide him. As he discovers that Valencia is both a ghost goddess of legend and the very real girl who pulled him from the sea, he becomes caught between the village's desperate bid for freedom and a traitor working to destroy them from within. "The Trumpet of Valkyrie" is a thrilling wartime tale where supernatural forces and human courage collide in the frozen north.
