The haunted Juliet Capulet and the brooding Prince Hamlet cross plots and purposes in this gothic, Shakespeare-infused romantic fantasySince her death and unexplained resurrection, Juliet of House Capulet has been deemed the “Miracle of Verona.” A year after rising from her grave, her mother hopes to find her a suitable husband at the Midsummer Festival at Castle Elsinore. Juliet, however, has other plans—seek out a mystic who might rid her of the ghost of her infamous lover: Romeo Montague. Meanwhile, Prince Hamlet, plagued by glimpses of the ghost of his late father, seeks someone who might help him communicate with the dead king’s apparition. For he suspects a villain lurks among the royal family, responsible for his father’s death.When Juliet rescues a seemingly mad Lady Ophelia from drowning, she’s invited to dine with the royal family and comes face to face with the infuriatingly clever and distractingly handsome Prince Hamlet. Soon, the pair discover that each might hold the key to the other’s ghostly mystery. But as the two join forces, they unearth not only clues to the malevolent magic taking root across the Continent, but a growing attraction powerful enough to tear a hole between worlds. With the aid of King Lear’s brilliant daughter Cordelia, her quick-witted companions Cesario and Imogen, and the utterly unreliable and wholly vexing Bottom the Weaver, Hamlet and Juliet uncover a conspiracy that threatens the entire Globe.
