On October 21, 1805, in the midst of the Battle of Trafalgar, Admiral Lord Horatio Nelson and the H.M.S. Victory are enveloped by an unknown force which render Nelson and his entire crew unconscious in a moment and transport them through time to the year 793. When they awake, they find themselves adrift, not off Cape Trafalgar, but in the North Sea, off the coast of Lindisfarne Island. In the distance, they can see the flames from the burning monastery there, which, unknown to the men of the Victory, had been put to the torch by brutal Viking raiders earlier that day. Faced with this bizarre situation, Nelson must make some hard choices. Lost in a hostile world, with no friends, no home port, and no supplies, can he and his crew survive amid the violence and intrigue of the Viking Age?
