Summary

In the shadow of World War II, in the heart of Yorkshire, Edward Smith, a diligent librarian, embarks on a unique cataloguing assignment at the secluded Hackthwaite Hall. The estate's owner, Dr. Lovegrove, a retired industrial chemist, reveals an unexpected obsession with the arcane art of alchemy, claiming to have conjured a supernatural creature of impossible powers.

Smith's initial amusement and skepticism dissolve as eerie phenomena begin to haunt the hall's ancient walls, and he finds himself drawn into the alchemist's wild tales. In this nexus where science and the occult intertwine, Edward must unravel the enigmatic secrets of 'The Poisoned Rose' before he becomes the next victim of its poisonous thorns.

'The Poisoned Rose' is a riveting supernatural mystery, set in the mid-1940s, brimming with unexpected twists and turns. Delve into the world of alchemy and the unexplained in this captivating novella that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
