    The author of 'The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid' isn't, after all, a Shakespeare scholar, a playwright, or even a biographer. Reading 'Shakespeare The World As Stage', however, one gets the sense that this eclectic Iowan is exactly the type of person the Bard himself would have selected for the task. The man who gave us 'The Mother Tongue' and 'A Walk in the Woods' approaches Shakespeare with the same freedom of spirit and curiosity that made those books such reader favorites. A refreshing take on an elusive literary master.

    It's October in California and the entire canyon is threatened with fiery destruction. Nestled in the oak-studded coastal mountains, the village of Arroyo Loco is rife with quirky residents, endless bickering, and long-simmering animosities. Arson is another matter. Once the fire is quelled, the community learns the sheriff's detectives are spending the weekend at a sensitivity-training workshop in Big Sur. It falls to Estela and an eclectic collection of neighbors to conduct their own investigation and find the arsonist living among them. What begins as speculation over coffee becomes a more urgent and dangerous search when a body is discovered in the charred wreckage, another resident turns up missing, and a shocking secret is revealed. Too often joined by Estela's irrepressible border collies, who regard any fence as a mere suggestion, the residents in Arroyo Loco must negotiate their own frailties and the rules of an officious and dysfunctional homeowners association (aren't they all?) as they try to solve the mysteries before anyone else falls victim.
