But the most valuable bookâA Curious Herbal, created by Elizabeth Blackwell in the 1730sâis missing and Dorothea is under suspicion.
Chinaâs search for the thief takes on a new urgency when she discovers Miss Carswellâs bookseller, the victim of an attempted murder. Is his shooting connected with the theft? And there are other urgent questions: What is the Hemlock Guild? Who owns Socrates.com? Did Sunny Carswell really kill herself, or does her ghost have a different story to tell? And what is the real truth behind the many tantalizing mysteries of A Curious Herbal?
