  • "Drawn by a letter from a student who dies under mysterious circumstances, literature professor Rose Asher journeys to Italy in search of a missing folio containing what some believe are lost sonnets penned by William Shakespeare."
  • "Literature professor Rose Asher can't shake the feeling: Robin Weiss, a talented and ambitious student at her New York City college, definitely reminds her of Bruno Brunelli, the man Rose came to love years ago during a semester in the Italian countryside. But soon Robin dies under mysterious circumstances and in a farewell letter directs his teacher to a library archive in Florence. Returning to the rustic Italian villa where she first met Bruno, Rose finds herself enmeshed in a web of secrets and scandal: a folio containing what some believe are lost sonnets by Shakespeare has mysteriously vanished. Uncertain whom she can trust and where she can turn, Rose races against time and her enemies in a desperate bid to retrieve a missing masterpiece--a work of art with the power to change lives and fortunes."
  • "Is there a treasure trove of passionate sonnets penned by Shakespeare lost in the Tuscan hills? Literature professor Rose Asher, returns to the Tuscan villa site of her first passionate love looking for clues."
  • "Now in B format. A Wonderfully Evocative Literary Thriller. Dr Rose Asher is a lecturer in Renaissance poetry. As an undergraduate she spent a year in Tuscany at the villa La Civetta and began an ill-fated affair with her married tutor. But when Rose's most gifted student, Robin Weiss, dies in mysterious circumstances - and amid accusations of plagiarism - Rose finds herself reluctantly agreeing to return to La Civetta and face her former lover. La Civetta was once the home of sixteenth century poet Ginevra de Laura. Local legend insists that she is the 'dark lady' of Shakespeare's sonnets. Robin's screenplay suggested Shakespeare's love affair was conducted on Italian soil and garnered Hollywood interest and much professional rivalry among Rose's academic colleagues. But if Robin had discovered proof of Shakespeare's connections to La Civetta, was it a literary coup worth killing for?"
