A Viking in Samarkand

In the low Middle Ages, in the middle of the winter, a defeated and wounded Viking warrior is found in the Asian frozen plains by a young Mongol maid. A romance starts in that difficult environment. The woman turns out to be a shaman of the Tengrist cult. In current times, a young man dressed in odd clothes wakes up near a big commercial city near the Silk Road connecting China and Europe. In his confused brain certain disturbing images of his past come to his memory.
