From the publisher:
Oliver Marks has just served 10 years in jail — for a murder he may or may not have committed. On the day he’s released, he’s greeted by the man who put him in prison. Detective Colborne is retiring, but before he does, he wants to know what really happened a decade ago.
As one of seven young actors studying Shakespeare at an elite arts college, Oliver and his friends play the same roles onstage and off: hero, villain, tyrant, temptress, ingenue, extra. But when the casting changes, and the secondary characters usurp the stars, the plays spill dangerously over into life, and one of them is found dead. The rest face their greatest acting challenge yet: convincing the police, and themselves, that they are blameless.
Rapid Rating: High.
Profanity includes 71 uses of strong language, around 35 instances of moderate profanity, about 40 uses of mild language, and 60 instances of the name of Deity in vain. Sexual content includes kissing and some very brief sex scenes. Violence appears fairly strong.
