First Folio

When an old friend and colleague passes away, an LSU English professor travels to Swansea, Wales, to attend the funeral and is bequeathed a cache of handwritten manuscripts: the plays of William Shakespeare, along with a rare, leather-bound copy of the First Folio --the first collection of Shakespeare's plays. As he recognizes that the handwriting is not Shakespeare's, he enlists three other scholars to assist with authenticating the authorship, inadvertently alerting a ruthless collector who covets the priceless manuscripts.
