Sinopse

New book by bestselling author Bernard Cornwell, which has already sold almost 1 million copies in Brazil. In the heart of Elizabethan England, the young and attractive Richard Shakespeare dreams of a career in the London theater scene, a world dominated by his older brother, the illustrious playwright William Shakespeare. But Richard is penniless and has no support from his brother, who, instead of taking him in, places him in the care of Sir Godfrey, a cruel and perverted clergyman who trains boys to steal and perform. With a handsome face, charisma, and talent, Richard joins Shakespeare's theater company, playing, much to his chagrin, female roles. The brothers' relationship, however, is marked by constant tension, and, growing increasingly distant as William rises to fame, Richard finds himself tempted to definitively break his brotherly loyalty. Then, when a precious manuscript mysteriously disappears, suspicion naturally falls on the younger brother. Caught in a dangerous scheme of betrayal and dishonesty, Richard, with his career and even the lives of his colleagues at stake, embarks on an epic adventure in exciting—but treacherous—Elizabethan London to rescue the precious writings and regain the trust of the troupe.
