A compelling portrait of the acclaimed life of Mary, Queen of Scots, one of the most extraordinary and controversial figures in Scottish history-and perhaps the most tragic. Her life intrigued people ever since her dramatic death in 1597. Was she a promiscuous murderer or was she the innocent, misunderstood victim of evil enemies? Did she love David Riccio? And why did she marry the Earl of Bothwell, the man everyone believed was guilty of his murder?
