Disappearance of the apothecary

A secret society of women. A forgotten story. The poisonous breath of revenge is still in the air.

An unremarkable apothecary shop, hidden in the depths of eighteenth-century London, serves an unusual clientele and also under non-classical conditions: 

• Rule #1: Never use poison to harm another woman;
• Rule #2: The names of the killer and her victim must be recorded in the pharmacy register book.

Women all over town are whispering about a mysterious apothecary named Nella, who sells poisons that can get rid of male oppressors. Nella's spooky world is not the best place for her new visitor, an extraordinarily gifted 12-year-old girl named Eliza Fanning.

The author of the publication, Sarah Penner, skillfully immerses readers in a simultaneously creepy and alluring novel about women who fought for their survival in a world created by men and for men. Retribution for the wrong committed was the only way to freedom from oppression, and when the time of retribution comes, no one will defend womanhood as passionately and courageously as other women... 

Why should you buy:

• The novel became the book of the month in the club of the coolest book ambassador Reese Witherspoon.
• The publication has already been translated into more than 20 languages!
• A story worthy of a screenplay — which, in fact, is already being prepared by the Fox television company.
