About this ebook

In the underbelly of Victorian England, where gaslit streets whisper secrets and the air hangs heavy with the scent of intrigue, a deadly game unfolds in The Poisoner's Garden. When a string of mysterious deaths rocks the aristocratic circles of London, the city finds itself in the grip of fear—a serial poisoner lurks in the shadows, wielding exotic herbs with deadly precision. Enter Beatrice, a brilliant botanist with a penchant for the arcane. Her knowledge of flora is unparalleled, but when her own garden of delights becomes a source of dread, she finds herself entwined in a perilous investigation that threatens to unveil dark truths.


Teaming up with the tenacious Inspector Grant, a man haunted by the ghosts of his own past, Beatrice delves deep into a world of deception and betrayal. Together, they navigate the gaslit alleys and lavish ballrooms of London, each step drawing them closer to the sinister figure who manipulates nature’s most lethal creations. Their journey takes them to Lord Everill's sprawling Victorian manor, a place where the opulence of high society collides with the dangers lurking within the estate’s lethal greenhouse. Here, amidst the exotic plants and toxic blooms, nothing is as it seems.


As Beatrice and Inspector Grant piece together the puzzle, they grapple with the moral complexities of knowledge and justice. Is it right to wield the power of nature for vengeance? Can science and empathy coexist in a world rife with greed and corruption? Each encounter reveals the darker side of humanity, as the pair races against time to unmask a killer before they become the next victims of a lethal herb.


The Poisoner's Garden is a gripping thriller that masterfully weaves historical detail with gothic overtones, creating a tapestry of suspense and intrigue. The richly drawn characters—each with their own secrets and ambitions—invite readers to question not only the nature of justice but also the price of knowledge. With a plot that twists and turns like the vines of an exotic plant, this novel will ensnare those who yearn for a darkly fascinating journey through a world where beauty and danger coalesce in the most unexpected ways. Will Beatrice and Inspector Grant uncover the truth, or will they succumb to the very poisons they seek to understand? In a race against time, the answers lie hidden among the deadly blooms.
