A REMEDY DESIGNED TO HEAL BECOMES A LETHAL MURDER WEAPON... York:
1363: people are dying in mysterious circumstances...however, there
seems to be a common thread - the herbal remedies dispensed by
Nicholas Wilton, Master Apothecary. The first victim is an
anonymous pilgrim, but when a highborn nobleman dies after taking
the same potion the authorities finally decide to act. Dispatched
to York, in disguise, to unravel the mystery, Owen Archer, former
Captain of Archers, apprentices himself to the Apothecary. Yet it
is from Wilton's beautiful wife Lucie that he must learn the arcane
secrets of the trade. Slowly but surely Owen begins to uncover the
truth. And when the deaths continue he realises to his horror he
must count Lucie among the suspects...
