Smith seeks a truthful narrative about not only Mary Carmichael but also Seton, Beaton, Livingston and Fleming by integrating firsthand accounts and dramatic testimony.

There's an old publishing belief that books about Mary Queen of Scots always sell. Smith's certainly deserves to do so. He finds his way through the maze of 16th century Scottish politics dexterously and persuasively. ALLAN MASSIE, THE SCOTSMAN
