  Summary

  “Unfortunately, the guards were unavailable for questioning due to immdiately being slain by King Macbeth, in what he described as a fit of temper.”

  Several thanes glared at Macbeth, whose face curled in a scowl. Before the king could speak, the detective held up a placating hand.

  “I ask that comments be held until the whole bloodstained account is tallied.”

  Macduff, still flanking the detective, put his hand on his sword again, and the detective barreled on before anyone (Macbeth) could start with treason accusations.

  ———

  Or, an unholy amalgamation of Shakespearean tragedy and whodunit.
