Description

When four actors performing Hamlet in Stratford upon Avon discover the real identity of the playwright, it seems the Shadow of the Bard does not want the centuries-old secret revealed. Dramatic warnings mirror the killings in the play, as the characters morph into their stage personae. Will Olivia drown on the river under the willows? Is Hamish's dream the reality of Shakespeare's death? Is the startling truth actually spelt out in the Sonnets, plain for all with eyes to see? This romantic, sexy, funny and occasionally dark tale is packed with quotations and incidents from the play. Whether or not you already love Hamlet, one thing is certain - after reading this intriguing, entrancing novel, you will never think about Shakespeare's life in the same way again.
