On the birthday of Adolf Hitler a 90 years old man - dressed in the black uniform of the SS - visits a German war memorial in an Icelandic cemetery and shoots himself with an old Luger pistol. Why? When his beautiful granddaughter, TV journalist Melkorka Steingrímsdóttir, seeks answers to the riddle she discovers her grandfather’s involvement with the ruthless SS-chief Heinrich Himmler. Soon she encounters murderous enemies desperately searching not only for an ancient Runic Code to unlock the secrets of the magic weapons of Odin and Thor, but also a German U-boat, lost in 1944, laden with Third Reich gold.
