Murder, mischief, and medicinal herbs in fog-soaked Victorian London… Clara Wetherly thought running her late grandmother's apothecary would bring peace—until a poisoned man turns up dead behind her shop and the constables find one of her jars at the scene. Branded a murderess by the morning papers and trapped under house arrest, Clara has two choices: wait to be ruined—or prove someone's gone to deadly lengths to frame her. With her sharp-eyed feline companion Marmalade, a ghostly journal that refuses to stay closed, and a maddeningly perceptive inspector watching her every move, Clara dives into a mystery tangled in railway expansion schemes, old rivalries, and secrets worth killing for. In a city of gaslit shadows, even the truth comes steeped in danger. Perfect for fans of Deanna Raybourn, Rhys Bowen, and Victorian mysteries with strong heroines, slow-burn tension, and a dash of the uncanny. ✔ Historical Cozy Mystery✔ Herbal Lore & Apothecary Life✔ Smart Female Sleuth✔ Light Paranormal Touch✔ Slow-Burn Romance✔ Victorian London Atmosphere
