Queen Macbeth : a novel / Val McDermid.

McDermid, Val, (author.).

Summary:

"A thousand years ago in an ancient Scottish landscape, a woman is on the run with her three companions--a healer, a weaver, and a seer. The men hunting her will kill her--because she is the only one who stands between them and their violent ambition. She is no lady: she is the first queen of Scotland, married to a king called Macbeth. As the net closes in, what unfurls is a tale of passion, forced marriage, bloody massacre, and the harsh realities of medieval Scotland. At the heart of it is one strong, charismatic woman, who survived loss and jeopardy to outwit the endless plotting of a string of ruthless and power-hungry men. Her struggle won her a country. But now it could cost her life"-- Provided by publisher.
