Omtale fra forlaget
In Julia, a successful lawyer, and Magnus, a talented artist, we meet two troubled souls living in present-day Oslo, haunted by dark thoughts and feelings they cannot understand—echoes of unresolved traumatic events from what seem to be former lives. Julia takes on a risky high society lawsuit involving a powerful hotel magnate, while Magnus receives a commission to paint his portrait to commemorate the opening of his new flagship hotel. Julia and Magnus repeatedly cross each other's paths, and despite their different lifestyles, an awkward and seemingly uncomfortable relationship unfolds. Chance encounters with an ancient Norse symbol, the Jörmungandr, lead them to Leonard, an alternative doctor with a fascination for Norse history. Using an esoteric method to evoke buried memories, Leonard helps them confront a distant and brutal past, convinced this is the key to catharsis and closure in the present. The Salt of Ancient Tears is a sweeping, high-concept time-slip story that seamlessly blends elements of Nordic noir, suspense, and romance, weaving together modern times with the enigmatic fate of Eystribygð, the last Viking settlement in Greenland. Rooted in historical fact, the storyline delves into perhaps Medieval Europe's greatest mystery—the sudden and unexplained disappearance of the entire Norse Greenland population in the early 15th century. As a captivating subplot, the authors present a thought-provoking yet plausible theory explaining the tragic fate of this long-lost Viking settlement.

Denne boken "Tårer fra en tapt tid" anbefaler jeg alle å lese!! Jeg gråt, jeg lo og innimellom berørte den meg så sterkt at jeg bare måtte legge den fra meg. .. Ja, det er en historisk bok, en nesten krimbok og en kjærlighetsroman. Men den tar absolutt opp det som er oppe i tiden #metoo. Og det fine med det hele er at to menn har satt seg ned å skrevet en bok om sterke kvinner. Takk Brian M. Talgo og Brynjulf Haugan!
