Description
In 1920s London, brilliant botanist Saffron Everleigh is drawn into a dangerous investigation when a society dinner ends in suspected poisoning and a fellow scientist falls gravely ill. Working alongside the determined Inspector Alexander Yates, Saffron must use her knowledge of toxic plants, scientific rivalries, and human nature to uncover the truth before the culprit strikes again. Blending historical mystery, witty partnership, and a vividly realized world of glasshouses and grand parties, this atmospheric novel explores ambition, friendship, and the barriers facing women in science.
