Description
In eighteenth-century London, a secret apothecary shop serves an unusual clientele. Women across the city whisper about Nella, a mysterious figure who sells carefully disguised poisons for use against the oppressive men in their lives. Her fate is threatened when a precocious twelve-year-old customer makes a fatal mistake, setting off consequences that echo through the centuries. In present-day London, aspiring historian Caroline Parcewell spends her tenth wedding anniversary alone, running from her own troubles. When she discovers a clue to the unsolved apothecary murders that haunted London two hundred years earlier, her life becomes entwined with the apothecary’s in a startling twist of fate, and not everyone will survive. This debut novel combines suspense, memorable characters and a story of secrets, vengeance and the remarkable ways women can save one another across time. The contents are in English.
