  • CROSSED LOVERS, by James A. Garlinghouse and Andrea M. Clark

    In the frostbitten winter of 1602, Edmund Shakespeare, the lesser-known brother of literary giant William, attempts to write a play when a mysterious woman from the future is suddenly thrown into his orbit.  Together, they collaborate as writing partners to create a “masterpiece,” where the only guarantee is laughter.
