Description

Advance Praise

Praise for The Scottish Play (2023)

"It's about time a top end TV drama company picked this series up for production. Absolutely perfect for Sunday nights on BBC1. Once again Penny Freedman has written an elegant crime mystery." - Amazon

"I cannot recommend 'The Scottish Play' highly enough." - Amazon

"I am currently teaching Macbeth to my students, so when I saw the description for this book, I had to request it!  The ties to Macbeth were done well, but not overdone like other books that are retellings/inspired by Shakespeare. Definitely a must-read if you are a Macbeth fan, and love a good mystery!" - NetGalley
