Our three main characters are women, there’s only one good man in the book, and Nella’s whole life’s work involves killing men. It honestly stopped me from reading the book in one sitting. There is definitely a vibe of feminism in this book.
When she stumbles upon a clue to the unsolved apothecary murders that haunted London two hundred years ago, her life collides with the apothecary's in a stunning twist of fate-and not everyone will survive. Meanwhile in present-day London, aspiring historian Caroline Parcewell spends her tenth wedding anniversary alone, running from her own demons. But the apothecary's fate is jeopardized when her newest patron, a precocious twelve-year-old, makes a fatal mistake, sparking a string of consequences that echo through the centuries. Women across the city whisper of a mysterious figure named Nella who sells well-disguised poisons to use against the oppressive men in their lives. Hidden in the depths of eighteenth-century London, a secret apothecary shop caters to an unusual kind of clientele.
