Om Apothecary 709
Everyone tells Violet Morgen she's ill, but she fears it's something more sinister. Shadow entities haunt her in mirrors. Dark visions plague her sleepless nights. None of the treatments prescribed by so many doctors have ever helped until she tries the remedies of the town's mysterious new apothecary, Roger Gale. The two become friends and soon fall in love, despite her father's warnings. But when Roger finally reveals his terrible secrets, Violet doesn't know if she can trust him. Or herself.
On the night of the Autumnal Equinox, Violet's father vanishes, leaving behind a cryptic letter and a bottle of unknown drug. To find him, she'll reluctantly enlist the help of Roger, as well as other knights of his occult order, who protect the magical balance between the human world and the Otherworld of the Fae. To stop a dangerous predator, must Violet awaken the terrifying power she's always known as her curse?
