I felt like this book was too long. The 10 year flashback for Erik was too laborious and he was a super a**hole. I couldn't like him much. Simone was a pathetic character who is unbelievably insecure and rather whiny. The only characters I liked were the kid and Una. Maybe that was intentional. The plot had 2 thrillers wrapped around these characters and seriously could have been two books. It's definitely not the best of Scandinavian fiction, but it also could have been so much better.

Scotland, the 11th Century. Born in a noble household and granddaughter of a forgotten Scottish king, a young girl carries the guilt of her mother’s death and the weight of an unknowable prophecy. When she is married, at fifteen, to the Mormaer of Moray, she experiences firsthand the violence of a sadistic husband and a kingdom constantly at war. To survive with her young son in a superstitious realm, she must rely on her own cunning and wit, especially when her husband’s downfall inadvertently sets them free.

I was eager to read this novel as it covers points in Scottish history that I am not as familiar with as background of the story. It also gives the back story of Lady Macbeth and the events prior to Shakespeare's Macbeth. I will admit to not being well educated in Shakespeare's works but I deeply appreciated the mother and child story. How the winds of destiny pulled the strands of these lives. I also loved the hints of supernatural influences, because I know that these were contemporary spiritual influences.
The performance by both the narrators is solid. The brogue isn't distracting and lends to the locale and time frame.
