Publisher's summary[[edit] | [edit source]]
The TARDIS is drawn to Scotland again – to the troubled Kingdom of Moray, and its Queen Gruach. Or, as the Doctor knows her better, Lady Macbeth. While some believe she is the cause of her people’s woes, she may yet become their saviour.

Continuity[[edit] | [edit source]]
- On discovering he's in Scotland, the Doctor asks if they've had the Zygons yet. (TV: Terror of the Zygons)
- The Doctor tells Gruach that if the people knew what the Stone of Scone really was, they wouldn't go near it. (PROSE: Set in Stone)
- Kinade inquires if the blue box is bigger on the inside (TV: An Unearthly Child, et al)
History[[edit] | [edit source]]
- Lady Macbeth spits on the ground, cursing her husband's name. The Doctor jokes it might be a bit too early for that. The trope around "The Scottish play" is that no actors should utter the name Macbeth, for it will invoke bad luck.
