MURDOCH STEWART, Duke of Alblany - any historical novels about him and his family?
I enjoy reading historical novels and would like to know if there are any regarding Murdoch Stewart and his family. He was beheaded in Scotland in 1425 as well as two of his sons and many others during the reign of King James. Murdoch's wife Isabella (Countess of Albany and the daughter of Duncan, 8th Earl of Lennox, also executed) was exiled at Stirling Castle for the rest of her life. Murdoch and Isabella also had a daughter Isabella who married Sir Walter Buchanan. Are there any novels with them as characters? My family traces back to Scotland through the Buchanans. I believe novels with some of these characters would be very interesting.
