Scotland, 1040
Macbeth has been crowned king, finding himself on the throne and surrounded by a kingdom where not everyone approves of his dramatic ascent.
The political tensions increase; ambition builds inside the court, rivals whisper in the shadows, and there are warnings of rebellion.
The reign is shattered when a bloody path to power is uncovered.
The throne room is tense and Lady Macbeth stands beside her king, composed except for the blood on her hands. King Duncan lies assassinated, but the growing suspicions of Banquo and the defiant stance of Macduff threaten to tear the crown away.
Outside, there are no escapes from the prophecies, and the murderous plotting rapidly moves towards a bloody climax inside the castle walls.
Lady Macbeth must race against time and murder to survive and remain queen, preventing her husband from falling from grace.
D. Lawrence-Young is a retired English and history lecturer and has written over twenty historical novels.
