Saxo Grammaticus

Prince of Jutland

A Danish prince seeks revenge upon the villain who killed the king and his son to usurp the throne.

The Red Mantle

Seeking revenge against the rival clan responsible for the killing, Hagbard, the son of a slain Norse king, calms down long enough to establish a truce. He also falls in love with Signe, the daughter of his one-time enemy. Signe's former beau, sizzling with jealousy, breaks the truce and makes it appear that Hagbard was responsible.
