Nothing Will Come of Nothing
shakespeare & hathaway-private investigators

Devastatingly handsome compulsive gambler Lorenzo Foyle's luck may have run out - watching a spinning roulette wheel land on black, he manically laughs that he's a dead man. 3 days later, Lorenzo's pregnant wife, Ava, approaches Frank and Lu, desperate to find him. Frank wonders whether Lorenzo, who owes money all over town, has left her, but Ava's adamant he was excited at the prospect of fatherhood. When a pound of flesh in the form of a heart is sent to The Globe Casino "from Lorenzo", Ava's horrified, although proprietors Ms King and her sister Queenie think it's a practical joke from the local lothario. With conflicting stories about Lorenzo's disappearance not adding up, Lu and Frank delve in to the world of high stakes gambling at the casino, and must take a chance with their own lives to uncover the truth...

About Shakespeare & Hathaway-Private Investigators:

Private inspector Frank Hathaway has always worked alone.

But Frank isn't doing so well.

He's out of shape and low on cash.

Frank needs a partner.

Frank needs ex-hairdresser and people-person Lu.

He just doesn't know it yet.

The two eventually join forces and form a highly unlikely and hugely entertaining detecting duo.

Frank and Lu quickly discover that all is not as peaceful as it seems in their pretty theatre town.

The mayor is murdered, vengeful lovers stalk the streets and a magician's trick fatally misfires.

Welcome to Stratford-upon-Avon, where low life criminals get caught up in deliciously high drama.
