Where do I begin with this review? Despite the book having some gruesome murders and could be quite dark, it is a lighthearted dark comedy that had me chuckling the whole way through! I loved the characters, Fred is the main one who had me laughing, and him and Toby make a great team! Oliver is the perfect villain, and I loved his descent into maddness! I really liked that you got the POV of both the detectives as well as the one committing the crime! If you're worried that you don't have the knowledge of Shakespeare beyond being obcessed with Leo and Claire Danes as Romeo and Juliet (guilty as charged!) or the Lion King being a Hamlet retelling don't worry as I don't think it's needed as is explained in a brilliant way! 
A must-read for fans of crime books that's make you giggle with fab characters whether you're a fan of Shakespeare or not! I can't wait for book 2!
