Shakespeare's Secret by Elise Broach

5.0

A very quick read. I think kids will like Hero, a real kid with believable thoughts and feelings. The mystery surrounding Shakespeare's true identity and the Murphy diamond is exciting, but the primary enjoyment of the story comes in the relationships between Hero, her sister Beatrice, Danny, & Mrs. Roth. Grownups will be able to see the surprise ending from almost the beginning. It still satisfies.
