Anno del Signore 1606. Nella residenza reale di Hampton Court l'atteso debutto del Macbeth, la tragedia più fosca di William Shakespeare, si macchia di sangue: uno degli attori trova la morte in un delitto che riecheggia l'efferata violenza della finzione scenica. Da allora, per la gente di teatro, il Macbeth diventa il "dramma scozzese", la tragedia innominabile perché maledetta. Quattrocento anni dopo, nel castello di Dunsinnan sulle gelide colline della Scozia, dove fu assassinato Macbeth, una compagnia di attori si è radunata per le prove di una nuova messinscena del Macbeth diretta da Kate Stanley, brillante studiosa che di Shakespeare conosce ogni riferimento all'occulto. Quando l'attrice che interpreta Lady Macbeth sparisce all'improvviso, la leggenda della maledizione riaccende antiche superstizioni e paure. E Kate, tormentata da spaventose visioni notturne, capisce che il pericolo è reale e che solo cercando tra le pagine di una versione perduta dell'"opera senza nome", potrà scoprire l'identità di un serial killer inafferrabile, e sventare il crudele disegno che fa di lei stessa la prossima vittima.
