Found this book based on a Tiktok for those who enjoyed The Secret History, truly glad I read it. I adore Shakespeare and a mystery like this is always fun to read. The gore wasn’t too graphic and the characters were complex and well meshed. The pacing is easy to follow and, overall, entertaining. Would read again.
