In other scenes, my stomach turned in revulsion at the lengths the poisoner went through while stalking and attempting to murder her prey. In some scenes, Lavinia is so sympathetic, my palms sweat with anticipation, hoping Lavinia could escape every predicament she found herself in. Fans of the Dexter series will love Lavinia, an anti-hero the reader simultaneously gravitates toward and cringes away from. Pohlkamp’s Apricots and Wolfsbane reads like a modern-day psychological thriller. Lisa Orchard author of The Super Spies and The Starlight Chronicles. The story kept me on my toes with the action and the plot twists.” “This is not my usual genre, however, I enjoyed the novel immensely. Fast-paced, grim, and darkly funny, Pohlkamp’s prose are intoxicating.” Apricots and Wolfsbane is a unique thriller packed with impressive research into historical poisons.

With her ideals in conflict, Lavinia must decide which will satisfy her heart: love, faith, or murder-but the betrayals are just beginning. She balances revenge with her struggle to develop a tasteless poison and avoid the wrath of her ruthless patron. When the magistrate suspects her ruse, he pressures the priest into breaking her confessional seal, pitting Lavinia’s instincts as an assassin against the tenets of love and faith. Believing confession erases the sin of murder, her morbid desires are in unity with faith, though she could never justify her skill to the magistrate she loves.Īt the start of the 16th century in Tudor England, Lavinia’s marks grow from tavern drunks to nobility, but rising prestige brings increased risk.

Lavinia Maud craves the moment the last wisps of life leave her victim’s bodies-to behold the effects of her own poison creations.
