About Shakespeare & Hathaway-Private Investigators:

Private inspector Frank Hathaway has always worked alone.

But Frank isn't doing so well.

He's out of shape and low on cash.

Frank needs a partner.

Frank needs ex-hairdresser and people-person Lu.

He just doesn't know it yet.

The two eventually join forces and form a highly unlikely and hugely entertaining detecting duo.

Frank and Lu quickly discover that all is not as peaceful as it seems in their pretty theatre town.

The mayor is murdered, vengeful lovers stalk the streets and a magician's trick fatally misfires.

Welcome to Stratford-upon-Avon, where low life criminals get caught up in deliciously high drama.
