Shakespeare's Secret

A missing diamond, a mysterious neighbor, a 
link to Shakespeare - Can Hero uncover the 
connections?

When Hero starts sixth grade at a new 
school, she's less concerned about the 
literary origins of her Shakespearean name 
than about the teasing she's sure to suffer 
because of it. So she has the same name as a 
girl in a book by a dusty old author. Hero is 
simply not interested in the connections. But 
that's just the thing; suddenly connections 
are cropping up all over, and odd characters 
and uncertain pasts are exactly what do 
fascinate Hero. There's a mysterious 
diamond hidden in her new house, a curious 
woman next door who seems to know an 
awful lot about it, and then, well, then there's 
Shakespeare. Not to mention Danny Cordova, 
only the most popular boy in school. Is it all 
in keeping with her namesake's origin-just 
much ado about nothing? Hero, being Hero, 
is determined to figure it out.
