When he goes missing and is presumed dead she returns to Scotland, where she finds her aunt and uncle much changed.
Left in England with Jeffrey’s family, Tessa finds some peace but must resist a growing attraction to her abductor. Her life takes several odd turns, stranger still because they are predicted by three old women met on the moors, the same three who predict Macbeth’s rise to power. There she becomes acquainted with Lord and Lady Macbeth, but she is soon stolen from their care by Jeffrey Brixton, an English spy. Tessa macFindlaech is sent to her uncle’s castle for training because her mother considers her too headstrong. Yes, there’s romance and danger and a love-conquers-all finale, but amidst the derring-do readers glimpse of one of Shakespeare’s most interesting characters, one of history’s most maligned kings, the eleventh-century Scottish king Macbeth. Macbeth’s Niece is a novel that appeals to both heart and mind. When Tessa macFindlaech is stolen from her uncle's castle by handsome English spy Jeffrey Brixton, she struggles to overcome invading soldiers, ruthless outlaws, and the disturbing whispers of her own heart.
