(3) YA Sharp-tongued, audacious Tennessean, Horatio (Something Rotten), attends the Scottish Highland Games with his friend Mac. Things go awry after Mac's grandfather Duncan, the festival's founder, is murdered. Family rivalries and inheritances provide the clues to solve the crime in this clever modern-day Macbeth takeoff. The story juxtaposes light humor and dark behavior more starkly than in Horatio's previous adventure.
