Lillian Haswell, brilliant daughter of the local apothecary, yearns
for more adventure and experience than life in her father's shop
and their small village provides. She also longs to know the truth
behind her mother's disappearance, which villagers whisper about
but her father refuses to discuss. Opportunity comes when a distant
aunt offers to educate her as a lady in London. Exposed to
fashionable society and romance--as well as clues about her
mother--Lilly is torn when she is summoned back to her ailing
father's bedside. Women are forbidden to work as apothecaries, so
to save the family legacy, Lilly will have to make it appear as if
her father is still making all the diagnoses and decisions. But the
suspicious eyes of a scholarly physician and a competing apothecary
are upon her. As they vie for village prominence, three men also
vie for Lilly's heart.
