Shakespeare's Mousetrap — Margaret Frazer
A TALE OF YOUNG SHAKESPEARE
Young Will Shakespeare has a bit of a problem: Murder most foul. As in the best it is, award-winning author Margaret Frazer proves that the play's the thing when crimes of passion are put center stage in an all-too-revealing production of Titus Andronicus. A murderer seeks to unlock the secrets of Shakespeare's playhouse, but the actors won't be the only ones to die once the blood-drenched spirits of the past walk the boards to find their revenge...
