While clearing out his late grandfather’s flat, Will Davenant discovers a surprising copy of The Complete Works of Shakespeare. When he opens the book, a group of characters tumble out: the murderous Lady Macbeth, Juliet without Romeo, a mumbling skull, and a fairy called Puck. Will is the last descendant of the legendary bard, William Shakespeare, and he’s accidentally summoned them to help with some neighbourly troubles. Comedy, tragedy, history: Will’s world has it all ...the superstar author Maz Evans is back with a new standalone story. Join her and find out more!
