In the attic of a Connecticut home, amidst boxes of old clothes and forgotten toys, a literary treasure lay undiscovered for centuries. It was a manuscript, written in a beautiful hand, containing a play by William Shakespeare that had never been seen before.
The play, entitled Indecent Hours, is a raucous comedy about a group of friends who get together for a night of drinking and debauchery. The play is full of Shakespeare's characteristic wit and wordplay, and it provides a fascinating glimpse into the playwright's private life.

Sarah had always been interested in literature, and she was immediately intrigued by the manuscript's beautiful handwriting. She took the manuscript home and began to read it, and she was soon hooked.
