註釋
Cardenio, a play by William Shakespeare, has been missing since 1613. If recovered, it would be worth a fortune -- and the chance to re-introduce it to the world would be the chance of a lifetime. Dr. Deirdre Gunn, a scholar wanting to redeem her reputation -- and in need of money -- is offered that chance when an old classmate shows up and offers her a centuries-old manuscript that may just be the long-lost treasure. Deirdre is seldom able to resist temptation (either in the academic world or in the bedroom) and she takes the bait. But then a murder is committed, and Deirdre sets out to find the killer before the police pin the crime on her. She becomes entangled in a four-hundred-year-old mystery, and soon realizes her own life is in danger.
