Interpretation Concering Books Grendel's Curse (Rogue Angel #48)
A sword of legend in the hands of an extremist...Skalunda Barrow, Sweden, has long been rumored to be the final resting place of the legendary Nordic hero, Beowulf. And there's something of Beowulf's that charismatic and zealous right-wing politician Karl Thorssen wants very badly. Intent on getting his hands on the mythical swords Hrunting and Nægling, Sweden's golden-boy politico puts together a team to excavate the barrow. A team that American archaeologist Annja Creed manages to finagle her way onto. She wouldn't miss this possible discovery for anything.
With Nægling at his side, Thorssen could be invincible—a Nordic King Arthur. What his followers don't know—and Annja is beginning to suspect—is just how far Thorssen will go to achieve his rabid amibitions. When Thorssen marks Annja for death, she quickly realizes that this is much more than a political game. And the only way to survive is to match Thorssen's sword with her own.

This was a good book. I like the new author that wrote this one. Hope his others turn out just as good.Once again Annja finds herself facing death. She is in Sweden to do a segment on Beowolf's tomb for Chasing Histories Monsters when a bomb goes off and suddenly people keep dying. An assassin is sent after her and things get complicated real fast. Of course she can't get a hold of Roux and she doesn't feel the police are safe either. What's a girl supposed to do when someone is trying to have her killed and there is a mystery artifact at stake.
Brought in to document a dig in Sweden, Annja Creed as seems to be her fate finds herself on the outskirts of a political... and troubling... conflict. To complicate matters, the political issues not only have far reaching effects on the future of Sweden, but it directly impacts the dig that she has been brought into cover...the uncovering of the Skalunda Burrow... the burial site of what may be one of the greatest legends of history. For, it is here that the body of Beowulf is purported to be
3.5 stars
Annja is filming a segment about the opening of what might be the tomb of Beowulf, or at least the king who might have inspired the legend. The dig is enabled, though, but a politician running for office on an anti-immigrant platform, and has other plans for the dig. Mainly, he is looking for Beowulf's sword, which he can use to get to power. But when the sword is actually found, he gets a more than he expected.I quite enjoyed this installment. The only plot hole is that she couldn't get a hold
