What readers are saying
Readers appreciate the humorous take on classic mystery plays. Many recall enjoying performances in the past, highlighting its appeal for audiences.
Synopsis
Imagine what would happen if the tragedy of Hamlet were played like a story in a trashy, pulp fiction magazine.
The bard would never be the same.
Shy on poetry but loaded with poetic license, The omelet murder case introduces Chicago's number one private investigator and hack writer, "Shake" Speare, who is noted for his juicy yarns.
All the familiar characters are present (more or less) but the twists and turns of plot are not quite what the immortal bard had in mind.
