A sweeping, deeply researched chronicle of the COVID-19 pandemic, weaving together science, politics, and personal freedoms. Ronald Gruner, with the precision of a historian and the curiosity of a citizen, takes the listener from the roots of virology in the 19th century to the chaotic pandemic years of 2020–2022. The book doesn’t just tell the story of a virus—it lays bare the cultural and political divide that shaped America’s uneven and often painful response. Gruner’s writing is crisp, and he breaks down complex topics without dumbing them down.

I mitten av 80-talet gjorde Carl Gustaf Gilbert Hamilton entré på den politiska arenan. Han klev in som agent Coq Rouge i en tid som präglades av det kalla krigets slut, Sovjetunionens sammanbrott och kapitalismens seger.

Den svenska underrättelsetjänsten fick med den högt specialutbildade löjtnanten Hamilton tillgång till ett hemligt vapen. När en hög Säpotjänsteman blir skjuten i Stockholm kommer Carls unika kunskaper och talanger väl till pass.

In one single day the entire UK changed, and could never revert back to normality. Bombs detonated in every major city across England, releasing the little known ‘Non Compos Mentis Virus,’ and with it destroying seventy-five percent of the population. However, the virus didn’t kill those who contracted it, but instead infected their minds and senses, turning them in to violent psychopaths that can feel no pain and also gave them a new goal in life; to destroy anyone who does not carry the same virus.

Året är 1192 när Arn Magnusson efter tjugo års botgöringstjänst återvänder till Västra Götaland. Där råder tillfällig fred i väntan på det stora avgörandet. Arn är en av många tusen förlorare i det Heliga Landet. Med sig hem för han kunskap och invandrare som blir förutsättningen för en helt ny tid över hela Europa, och som av det lilla bondelandet Västra Götaland skapar det nya konungariket Sverige.

Stockholm drabbas av en rad egendomliga inbrott. Tjuvarna är märkligt skickliga och stjäl bara från de allra rikaste. Vanliga inbrott brukar polisen inte utreda. Men den här gången tillsätts en specialkommission på grund av de enorma värden som stulits. Medan polisen mödosamt arbetar i tjuvarnas spår pågår i en annan del av staden en helt annan tillvaro med en helt annan vardag.

Nådens år 1177. Arn Magnusson har hunnit bli 27 år och är redan en ärrad veteran bland korsfararna i det Heliga Landet. Mycket har hänt under de tio år som gått sedan han förvisades från Arnäs i Västergötland efter den förbjudna förbindelsen med sin älskade Cecilia. Nu sitter han som borgherre i garnisonen i Gaza med uppdrag att hålla lag och ordning i trakten. Under tiden avtjänar Cecilia sitt straff i Gudhems kloster. Innanför klostermurarna härskar den stränga Moder Rikissa och utanför pågår ännu den blodiga maktstriden mellan de sverkerska och erikska ätterna.

Nådens år 1150 föds Arn Magnusson på Arnäs gård vid Vänerns strand. Han växer upp hos munkarna i Varnhems kloster och får den yppersta av sin tids andliga och världsliga bildning. Han lär sig också hantera svärd och båge. Ty munkarna i Varnhem har förstått att Arn nog inte är ämnad att bli en klosterbroder utan bättre lämpad som en Kristi stridsman och tempelriddare i det Heliga Landet. När Arn som 17-åring lämnar klostret dras han in i de pågående intrigerna mellan rivaliserande tronpretendenter. Och han döms till tjugo års botgöring för sin kärlek till den ljuva Cecilia.

Ingrid Ylva blev en legend redan i sin livstid vid mitten av 1200-talet. Hon var en av flera starka änkor som styrde riket efter de blodiga segrarna mot Danmark. Om henne sades att hon var trollkunnig och att så länge hon höll sitt huvud högt skulle intet ont drabba folkungaätten. Med järnvilja fostrade hon sina söner i en skoningslös tid där den starkares rätt var den enda lag som gällde. Att just en av hennes söner till slut skulle segra i maktkampen kunde inte ha förvånat någon.
