The Poisoner's Client: An Enchanting Historical Novel of Baroque Rome (Clients of Giulia Tofana Series Book 1) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798268428933)

Rome, 1650s. Behind gilded walls and marble chapels, women are trapped in marriages that silence their voices and bruise their bodies. Escape is unthinkable-until whispers spread of a woman named Giulia Tofana. Midwife, healer... and, some say, the most dangerous poisoner in Italy.

Isabella de Rossi has everything society says she should want: wealth, beauty, a noble name. Yet her reality is cruelty hidden beneath silks and lace. When chance brings her to Giulia's secret door, Isabella faces an impossible choice: live in chains, or claim her freedom with a single, tasteless drop.

But freedom comes at a price. As rumors of "unnatural widowhoods" echo through Rome, priests and inquisitors circle closer. Isabella is not the only woman carrying Giulia's secret, and the bond of sisterhood may be the only shield they have against the noose.

The Poisoner's Client is a story of resilience and forbidden hope, where faith and survival collide, and every choice is shadowed by the threat of discovery.

Will Isabella find salvation in silence-or damnation in the truth?

✨ Fans of historical thrillers and women's survival stories will be captivated. Open the door, step into the shadows of Rome, and discover why so many risked everything to whisper Giulia Tofana's name.
