A parent might reach for this book when their teenager is struggling to navigate complex social hierarchies or feeling trapped by the poor decisions of the adults in their life. This suspenseful historical novel reimagines Shakespeare's Macbeth through the eyes of Mary, a fourteen-year-old ward who witnesses the terrifying descent of her guardians into greed and madness. It is a powerful exploration of moral courage and the difficulty of staying true to oneself when surrounded by toxic influences. While the setting is eleventh-century Scotland, the emotional core deals with very modern themes of gaslighting, manipulation, and survival. Because the story involves themes of murder and political betrayal, it is best suited for mature readers aged twelve and up. Parents will appreciate how the book prompts discussions about the difference between ambition and ruthlessness, as well as the importance of finding one's own voice even when the stakes are high.
