It started out strong and interesting but the story lost itself completely in very strange details and a very constructed and implausible plot. As much as I liked the Shakespearean mystery about one of his most famous plays and even the link to the modern day, there where too many things that did not make it believable. Characters that come and are killed off, weird time lines (like flying from London to New York and back and driving up into the Scottish Highlands in under 24 hours on a deadline, not even considering time zones, and the main character has exactly one hour of light sleep), the main villain(s) appear out of nowhere, while keeping the main character under permanent surveillance. It feels like the author wanted to squeeze in as many rumors, facts, and trivia on Macbeth as they could.
