The World of Tarot & Tea Leaves
Bloomsbury, London. 1856.
Clara Wetherly runs Hawthorne & Wetherly, the apothecary shop her grandmother Genevieve built — and where Genevieve’s ghost still rearranges the tarot cards when she has something to say.
Clara makes remedies, reads tea leaves, and would very much like to stop finding dead bodies. But the dead keep turning up, and Inspector Graham Redgrave keeps turning up with them — tall, skeptical, infuriatingly observant, and carrying secrets of his own beneath that black greatcoat with the silver buttons.
Between them sits Marmalade, Clara’s orange tabby, who has his own opinions about every suspect, every constable, and every kipper that enters the shop. Readers will tell you he’s the real detective. He would not disagree.
And watching it all from behind the lavender-scented curtain — Genevieve, who saved lives with foxglove, faced down earls, and is now quietly, stubbornly, orchestrating everything from beyond the grave.
