Lady Macbeth: A Novel

From towering crags toÂ misted moors and formidable fortresses,Â Lady MacbethÂ transports readers to the heart of eleventh-century Scotland, painting a bold, vivid portrait of a woman much maligned by history.Â

Lady Gruadhâ€”Rueâ€”is the last female descendant of Scotlandâ€™s most royal line. Married to a powerful northern lord, she is widowed while still carrying his child and forced to marry her husbandâ€™s murderer: a rising warlord named Macbeth. As she encounters danger from Vikings, Saxons, and treacherous Scottish lords, Rue begins to respect the man she once despised. When she learns that Macbethâ€™s complex ambitions extend beyond the borders of the vast northern region, she realizes that only Macbeth can unite Scotland. But his wifeâ€™s royal blood is the key to his ultimate success.Â Â

Determined to protect her son and a proud legacy of warrior kings and strong women, Rue invokes the ancient wisdom and secret practices of her female ancestors as she strives to hold her own in a warrior society. Finally, side by side as the last Celtic king and queen of Scotland, she and Macbeth must face the gathering storm brought on by their combined destiny.
