This crime drama begins in a small village near Zacatecas, North-Central Mexico, where Church Gagne, a blacker-than-black ops CIA agent, is recovering from nearly fatal wounds received on his last, abortive mission.The story quickly moves to Morris County, northern New Jersey, where Nancy Clarke, a pleasing high school senior and part-time employee in Doc Piscator's Canal Ville Apothecary, disappears. Her remains are later found in the woods near the towpath of the defunct Morris Canal. Tom Johnson, the local police chief, is quite sure he knows who the killer is but is frustrated because he lacks sufficient evidence to obtain search or arrest warrants. Nancy's mother, Zoe, is equally frustrated. She turns for help to the Reverend Elizabeth Williamson, the attractive, thirty-five-year-old, Rector of Saint Andrews Episcopal Church, who is a recovering alcoholic, and her newly retired, disillusioned companion, Church Gagne.Elizabeth and Church investigate in ways that Tom can't. Together they solve Nancy's murder and, in the process, uncover an astonishing criminal conspiracy that has operated from the Canal Ville Apothecary for years.With vignettes of history about the Morris Canal and northern Morris County, this drama has an attention-grabbing cast of characters including: El Gordo, a Mexican cartel boss; Ronnie Gruenburg, a film noir detective, from the County Prosecutor's Office, who's on his final case before retirement; a N.J. mob boss affiliated with the "Five Families;" Judy, Elizabeth's cousin, a computer savant, who was a world-class hacker before becoming a cyber warrior for the government and industry; Bill, Elizabeth's stockbroker father, who surprisingly has the president's direct line in his contact list; and Father John, a priest who is described as "a Jesuit's Jesuit," who aids Church while he recovers in Mexico; and Jacques, Elizabeth's intrepid chocolate Lab.

“This fine social history charts the changing patterns of using poison” and the forensic methods developed to detect it in the Victorian Era (The Guardian, UK). Murder by poison alarmed, enthralled, and in some ways even defined the Victorian age. Linda Stratmann’s dark and splendid social history reveals the nineteenth century as a gruesome battleground where poisoners went head-to-head with scientific and legal authorities who strove to detect poisons, control their availability, and bring the guilty to justice. Separating fact from Hollywood fiction, Stratmann corrects many misconceptions about particular poisons and their deadly effects. She also documents how the motives for poisoning—which often involved domestic unhappiness—evolved as marriage and child protection laws began to change. Combining archival research with vivid storytelling, Stratmann charts the era’s inexorable rise of poison cases.

'Vivid, pungent and perilous' CHRIS BROOKMYRE 'Evocative...brilliant plotting' REBECCA GRIFFITHS A dark and richly atmospheric thriller, perfect for fans of Laura Purcell's The Silent Companions, Sarah Perry's Melmoth and Elly Griffiths' The Stranger Diaries. London, 1846. Ramshackle and crumbling, St Saviour's Infirmary awaits demolition. Within its stinking wards and cramped corridors the doctors bicker and fight. Ambition, jealousy and hatred seethe beneath the veneer of professional courtesy. Always an outsider, and with a secret of her own to hide, apothecary Jem Flockhart observes everything, but says nothing. And then six tiny coffins are uncovered, inside each a handful of dried flowers and a bundle of mouldering rags. When Jem comes across these strange relics hidden inside the infirmary's old chapel, her quest to understand their meaning prises open a long-forgotten past - with fatal consequences . . . Praise for E.S. Thomson: 'It's rare that a book is Gothic enough for me, but Beloved Poison is killing it. The blood, the bones...' LAURA PURCELL 'Complex, harrowing and highly enjoyable' DAILY EXPRESS 'Marvellous, vivid . . . breathtakingly dark' JANET ELLIS 'Jem Flockhart books are the best I've read in years' KIRSTY LOGAN 'A marvel . . . thoroughly engrossing' MARY PAULSON ELLIS
