  <about><![CDATA[&lt;b&gt;Dorothy Dunnett&lt;/b&gt; OBE was a Scottish historical novelist. She is best known for her six-part series about Francis Crawford of Lymond, &lt;i&gt;The Lymond Chronicles&lt;/i&gt;, which she followed with the eight-part prequel &lt;i&gt;The House of Niccolò&lt;/i&gt;. She also wrote a novel about the real Macbeth called &lt;i&gt;King Hereafter&lt;/i&gt; (1982), and a series of mystery novels centred around Johnson Johnson, a portrait painter/spy.
