The men of the island, out fishing, perished in an instant and Vardø became a place of women. Eighteen months later, a sinister figure arrives. Summoned from Scotland to take control of a place at the edge of the civilized world, Absalom Vardø as a place flooded with a terrible evil that he must root out at all costs.
