Victorian era gothic romance about a botanist who likes to poison unsavory men but when her
next target visits her apothecary they discover their dark bond runs deeper than they
imagined. “Have you ever wondered how long it would take for a lethal dose of arsenic to
kill you? Thirty-five hours twenty-nine minutes and fifteen seconds. I should know. I
counted myself.” Amidst the gaslit alleys and cobblestone streets of Victorian London two
killers find themselves entangled in a waltz they cannot escape. Alina Lis a botanist and
hobbyist poisoner has a pastime of killing unsavory men in her twisted sense of poetic
justice. When she targets the conceited playboy Silas Forbes only to find him in her
apothecary the following week she discovers human men are the least of her problems. The
pair’s unlikely association sparks gossip among affluent society. As their mysterious bond
deepens a chilling truth emerges—concealed identities lurking foes and questions as
plentiful as the hydra’s head brew within this haunting Gothic tale of violent passion. Will
Silas and Alina find themselves in each other's arms or will the shadows of their past keep
them apart? Check the author website for content warnings
