About this ebook
In the storm-lashed highlands of medieval Scotland, where fate speaks in riddles and loyalty bleeds into the soil, a prophecy takes root in the heart of a warrior. Macbeth, battle-scarred and restless, returns home to seek a destiny rewritten by the whispers of the wyrd sisters. At his side, Lady Macbeth, fierce and unrelenting, hungers for power as much as he does. But ambition exacts a deadly price.
As the castle walls close in and shadows grow long, blood is spilled, ghosts awaken, and love twists into madness.
