About the book
The eldest daughter of Romeo and Juliet, known for her irreverent nature, is back to solve mysteries in Verona. This historical series is not only hugely entertaining but also has a bold premise that keeps readers engaged.
Despite my poor attempts at poetry, the truth remains - life can sometimes be like a windshield or a bug. I, Rosie Montague, have always sailed through life smoothly until now, when everything seems to be crashing down on me.
At 20 years old, I have never been married, choosing instead to live freely like no other married woman. But when love struck me in the form of Lysander, I found myself trapped by circumstances beyond my control, including the scheming Prince Escalus.
Just when I thought things couldn't get any worse, I am approached by Prince Escalus the Elder, who happens to be a ghost. He tasks me with finding his killer in exchange for reuniting me with my true love. As I gather clues, I realize that there are darker forces at play in Verona, and my own life may be at risk.
