Violetta and Feste seek the help of Will Shakespeare in retrieving the "holy relic" of Illyria, stolen by wicked Malvolio before he sacked and destroyed their land. By book's end, Will has spun the tragic stories related by Violetta and Feste into a new comedy: Twelfth Night. The abundance of period details and Shakespearean references will satisfy history and literature buffs.
