A sort of Da Vinci Code of book lovers, this story of a heretofore undiscovered Shakespeare manuscript is exciting, smart, and good-humored. As much as I liked the thrilling hunt, the passages about the antiquarian book trade were my favorites.
Henry Archer, a divorced gay man, reconnects with his long lost stepdaughter when visiting his ex-wife after the death of her husband. Their new relationship ignites in both what it means to be a father and daughter and helps them both rediscover the joy of family.
