Lady of the Play

This is a never before told story of Ely-the woman who was Shakespeare. Ely's life is revealed from her childhood to the ten years she served as maid of honor to Queen Elizabeth I, her marriage to Edward deVere, and why they hired William Shaksper. Interwoven is the modern story of Cynthia Parsons, a history teacher who searches for clues to prove Ely and Edward were writing partners. Having found the evidence she seeks, there are those who will use any means to keep her from revealing the truth.
