The Perfect Poison

The Perfect Poison

“Amanda Quick is one of the hottest writers in romance today,” says USA Today. Her exciting new Arcane Society adventure combines paranormal thrills and the simmering passions of a man and woman who refuse to be bound by Victorian convention.

At twenty-seven, Lucinda Clayton would be considered by many to be a spinster, not that she cares a wit. Nor does Caleb Jones, head of the Arcane Society’s private enquiry firm. Caleb’s attraction to the flame-haired beauty with remarkable psychic abilities is matched only by his determination to solve her dilemma. It seems Lucinda’s father was a prominent but controversial botanist suspected of poisoning several people before taking his own life. Now, Lucinda is concerned that a scientist, who’s recently sought her expertise concerning a rare and dangerous plant, may be responsible for a recent poisoning death, and fears that given her family’s notoriety, she could be implicated.

Caleb’s notorious short temper is in keeping with his brooding good looks, both of which Lucinda find irresistible. But while the spark between them soon inflames their senses, neither loses sight of a maniacal killer seeking The Perfect Poison….
