Description: Headstrong young widow Katharine de L'Isle lives a comfortable but solitary existence in her uncle's Lancashire home of Lufanwal Hall until events conspire to shatter her tranquility. First, the family priest is murdered - for his Catholic sympathies - causing her uncle and protector to flee the country. Abandoned by their father figure, the Lufanwal residents struggle to cope and old rivalries fester beneath the surface. Into this midst of this upheaval, there arrives a new schoolmaster from Stratford by the name of Will Shakespeare. Rude, flirtatious, and wickedly witty, Will appalls Katharine. Yet the discovery of a mutual love of poetry draws them together and Katharine finds she can never stay away from him for long.
