I give this book three stars because I would recommend it, for fun, to any fan of Shakespeare. That part of the book was very interesting. The mystery, not so much. I'm not really sure the author played fair. It didn't feel like it. Also, though the conversations between characters tried to be lively, they mostly weren't. The two main characters just fell flat for me. Written in the 1970s, it includes all the gritty details of people's sexual lives, though I admit, without explicitness, which is why I pretty much avoid mysteries from the 60s and 70s. Still, I feel it was worth the read because of the clever things about the play Macbeth. It may have helped that I had just read Macbeth and am a complete novice to all the arguments about it, but in reading it through, I had spotted all the snags about the 3rd murderer and Hecate, etc. For that reason, I enjoyed this story, though I would be selective in recommending it.

Mystery.
HTML: Hilary takes on a pair of mysteriesâ??one fictional, and one all too realIn college, Hilary Quayle dreamed of the stage, and playing all the great leading ladies that Shakespeare had to offer. But her interest was due less to the Bard than to another man: director, actor, and theatrical personality Michael Godwin. And though she got her wish, she found that acting onstage and romancing backstage did not add up to happiness. A decade past college, she's now a publicity wizard and occasional sleuth, but still nursing enough of a schoolgirl crush to help Michael Godwin when he calls. The director is in New York to stage a spectacular, arena-sized Macbeth, one that will answer the centuries-old question: Who is the mysterious third murderer who appears in Act III? When accidents begin to plague the production, Godwin and his company chalk it up to the play's curse. But when a real murderer enters the scene, only Hilary Quayle can guarantee a happy ending.
