A collection of Shakespearean detective stories featuring such private eyes as Falstaff, Mark Antony and Orlando. The cases they investigate range from the death of Romeo and Juliet to Cleopatra's suicide.
Shakespearean Whodunnits is an anthology comprised of short story adaptations of Shakespeare's original plays. Most of them are based on loose ends at the ends of the original plays, exploring a particular character's death.
While it claims you do not need to have any knowledge of the plays, I would highly recommend knowing all of Shakespeare's plays thoroughly before reading this anthology, as most were confusing if you haven't read the original.
There were a couple of gems in here, but most of them felt rushed and underdeveloped, like a rough outline of how that story were to go if it were written in full. All of them were quite forgettable. Additionally, several of the short stories had a lot of racism and sexism, even in excess of Shakespeare's original plays, which I was not a fan of.
If you're looking for a Shakespeare retelling or adaptation, I would look to full length stories focusing on one of his plays ( )

The Collaborator: The Tempest was the last undisputed play Shakespeare wrote. Soon after, he retired to Stratford. A later play which bore his name was almost certainly a collaboration. It is called Henry VIII and is chiefly in praise of Anne Boleyn.
