I kept wondering what the connection between "hamlet" and Baltimore could be! Mindbuggling! Now, I'm starting to get it. Thanks for the review!

I believe that a book's cover art is a very important factor to drawing readers in. So, I always mention my impression of the cover design.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts by leaving a comment.

The story is set in Baltimore, and Edgar's parents are actors in a production of Shakespeareโ€™s play, Hamlet.

Thank you for stopping by to comment.

The author seems to do a good job with the book, and so do you with this very detailed review! I am one to stay away from thrillers/horror books, and for a moment I was swayed to try this book out. Thank you for a lovely review!

I probably haven't read a review for a more original book lately. The author deserves recognition for the idea.
