Fair is foul and foul is fair. From the Sunday Times bestselling author of A STUDY IN
DROWNING comes a reimagining of Lady Macbeth Shakespeare's most famous villainess giving her
a voice a past and a power that transforms the story men have written for her. The Lady
knows the stories: that her eyes induce madness in men. The Lady knows she will be wed to the
Scottish brute who does not leave his warrior ways behind when he comes to the marriage bed.
The Lady knows his hostile suspicious court will be a game of survival requiring all of her
wiles and hidden witchcraft to survive. But the Lady does not know her husband has occult
secrets of his own. She does not know that prophecy girds him like armour. She does not know
that her magic is greater and more dangerous and that it will threaten the order of the
world. She does not know this yet. But she will.
