It was impossible to miss the plot wheels turning, the characters were almost non-existent and I figured out the ‘twist' within the first 100 pages, but I still enjoyed it. The Shakespeare conspiracy theory was fun - it is what I enjoyed about the book - but if you're not interested in that much literary history be warned because it overwhelms the very thin plot.
This book had some iffy reviews, so I really wasn't sure what to expect, but I have to admit I really really liked it! It was like Dan Brown meets Shakespeare, fast paced, interesting characters, an intriguing little read! Just a note, this is another of those books that is out under two different titles (Interred with Their Bones and The Shakespeare Secret), I had both on my reserved list not realizing they were in fact the same book (duh LOL), so just wanted to give a “heads up” about that! I look forward to reading more from this author.
This was a very good literary thriller set in London, Harvard and the American southwest. I liked the mix of literary clues set in archives and libraries.
