Terry Pratchett's Wyrd Sisters is a hilarious retelling of the Macbeth story on
Discworld.

How about "Something Wicked - a Horatio Bates Mystery" by Allan Gratz In a
contemporary story based on Shakespeare's play, Macbeth, Horatio Wilkes seeks to
solve the murder of Duncan MacKae at the Scottish Highland Games in Pigeon Forge,
Tennessee.
I haven't read it yet, but he's got some other mysteries out that use Shakespeare
themes. They look fun.

It makes you wonder. All the brilliant things we might have done with our lives if
only we suspected we knew how."
