Sherlock Holmes saves the restored Globe playhouse

"One of the better efforts in the pastiche genre. The book is well plotted and well written. the story revolves around an American impresario's efforts to rebuild Shakespeare's Globe theatre and the attempts to foil his labors and destroy his dreams. The author - who is obviously well versed in both Shakespearean history and writings,weaves a variety of interesting and intriguing Shakespearean quotations into his plot,though which he adds to the mystery and enjoyment of his story. The climax is excellent. 'Whodunnit' is well masked until the 'final act' - both in the play and in the book. This is a good one for all Sherlockians."
