Shakespeare, Arkansas, welcomes you. Lily Bard arrived in Shakespeare, a little hamlet, in an attempt to escape her violent and troubled background. She doesn't really pay any attention to the community around her other than the routine operations of her cleaning and errand-running business. She thus tends to avoid the scene when she sees a dead corpse being deposited on the town green. Nevertheless, she was drawn into the murder investigation in spite of her best attempts as she was in the wrong location at the wrong time. Lily doesn't care who did it, but when the local community and police begin accusing her, she understands that establishing her innocence will require locating the true murderer in Shakespeare's reclusive, peaceful home.
The first novel in Charlaine Harris's enigmatic Lily Bard series is Shakespeare's Landlord.
