The Fool's Girl
by Celia Rees
After her father has been murdered and her lands and treasures taken, young Duchess Violetta escapes slavery with the help of her Fool, Feste.
They pursue their cruel persecutor, Malvolio, to England where he plans to engage in intrigue with England’s enemies and assassinate the Queen.
Violetta seeks the help of Will Shakespeare to regain a treasure vital to her homeland and he forms a plan that will both send her home in triumph and preserve the peace of Elizabethan England. Later, Will turns the story into a new play and Twelfth Night is born.
With a powerful mix of love, loyalty, betrayal and adventure this is an exciting read that captures well the period atmosphere.
