An epic tale of love, loss and revenge set amidst the turmoil of Scotland after Shakespeare's Macbeth. The rebellion is over, Scotland has its rightful king, and the battlefields lie still--for now. Fleance, son of Banquo, has brought a new dawn to Scotland, and in the process become a very different man from the lowly huntsman who rode north to save his country. A generation has passed since Macbeth, but still there are evil forces at work across the land. Civil war is imminent, and there are traitors at the castle gates. The witches who foresaw Fleance's rise to power are watching and scheming once again. And there is turmoil, too, within the king's own soul: urged to marry a princess and strengthen his claim to the throne, he must choose between Rachel, of royal bloodline, and his first love, Rosie, whom he left behind. With the rebels circling and his crown starting to slip, the time has come for Fleance to prove that Scotland is in his heart as well as in his blood. Revised edition: This edition of Bloodlines includes editorial revisions.
