The Shakespeare Murders

When gentleman-adventured Peter Kerrigan retrieves a stolen wallet from a pickpocket, he discovers a small note inside that sparks his curiosity - "Dear Harry, This is written in great haste. A wonderful thing has happened to me, and before long I shall be worth at least a million pounds..."

On a hunt for a mysterious treasure Kerrigan becomes entangled in a murder investigation, at the heart of which is the malevolent Shakespeare riddle.

As the body count rises and the police become increasingly baffled, the treasure hunt mutates into a desperate struggle for survival; Kerrigan must to all he can to solve the riddle if he is to escape becoming its latest victim.

Eccentric, unfathomable, amusing and highly gratifying, The Shakespeare Murders is a feast of ingenuity and entertainment, a marvellously indulgent plunge into the creative mind of a master crime writer at the peak of his form.
