Two questions have always plagued historians: how could Christopher Marlowe, a known spy and England's foremost playwright, be suspiciously murdered and quickly buried in an unmarked grave, just days before he was to be tried for treason?

The Shakespeare Conspiracy is a historical novel that intertwines the two mysteries and then puts the pieces together to offer the only possible resolution.

As Grey notes, "Sometimes things are more clearly seen through the eyes of others."

I have an unusual life story to tell by the circumstances that came together as life went on. A depression baby, I experienced many days of hard times. A son of Italian immigrants, I spoke Italian at home. A deep desire to become educated was my dream. To be educated was always my dream, despite negative oppositions. My becoming an uncle at the age of three resulted in growing up with many nieces and nephews...not brothers and sisters. How I managed to overcome great obstacles to be educated is worthy of this reading. A "never give up" attitude led to my achievements.
