“This gut-splitting mystery is a hilarious riff on an avante-garde production of ‘the Scottish play’...Combining humor and pathos can be risky in a whodunit, but gifted author Brown makes it work.” – Mystery Scene MagazineLike every actor, Ivy Meadows knows that Macbeth is cursed. But she’s finally scored her big break, cast as an acrobatic witch in a circus-themed production of Macbeth in Phoenix, Arizona. And though it may not be Broadway, nothing can dampen her enthusiasm—not her flying cauldron, too-tight leotard, or carrot-wielding dictator of a director. But when one of the cast dies on opening night, Ivy is sure the seeming accident is “murder most foul” and that she’s the perfect person to solve the crime (after all, she does work part-time in her uncle’s detective agency). Undeterred by a poisoned Big Gulp, the threat of being blackballed, and the suddenly too-real curse, Ivy pursues the truth at the risk of her hard-won career—and her life.“Who cannot have fun with a disastrous (and murderous) production of Macbeth?

The plot is simplified and the language is made more accessible, by eliminating the ancient forms of the most commonly met words and replacing them with their modern correspondents. However, the authors succeeded in keeping most of the expressions the writer of the plays used, by harmoniously integrating them in the context.Mary Lamb chose to adapt the comedies and other plays with a more serene atmosphere and an optimistic, if not totally happy, ending. The Tempest, The Merchant of Venice, The Taming of the Shrew, A Midsummer Night's Dream and The Comedy of Errors are some of the Shakespearian works she rewrote, so that the young readers may easily understand them.On the other hand, her brother, Charles Lamb, had the difficult mission to bring the great tragedies into the school kids' attention.
