With over one million copies sold, this spellbinding tale of magic and murder introduces the secret apothecary who dispenses remedies to women in the form of vengeance
In eighteenth-century London, women whisper of a hidden apothecary shop that caters to an unusual kind of clientele. The mysterious owner, Nella, sells well-disguised poisons to women to use against the oppressive men in their lives. But Nella’s fate is jeopardized when her newest patron, a precocious twelve-year-old named Eliza Fanning, makes a fatal mistake, sparking a string of consequences that echo through the centuries.
Two hundred years later, aspiring historian Caroline Parcewell is running from her own demons when she discovers a clue to London’s long-unsolved “apothecary murders.” Caroline’s upended present soon collides with an explosive history, binding her fate to Nella’s and Eliza’s in a stunning twist that transcends the barrier of time.
