Description

Eustacia Rose's life is one of quiet routine, with her extensive collection of poisonous plants providing the only companionship she needs. But when she hears a scream, her carefully constructed schedule is disrupted, and she finds herself drawn into the life of her neighbour, Simone. As she observes the men who visit Simone, Eustacia begins to notice a pattern - each one has a toxic effect on her neighbour, and she starts to nickname them according to the poisonous plant that corresponds to their impact. As Eustacia becomes more entangled in Simone's life, she finds herself compelled to protect her neighbour, but the situation quickly becomes more complicated than she could have imagined. With her secret garden and her growing interest in Simone's life, Eustacia must navigate a web of relationships and motivations that threaten to upend her own carefully ordered world. With its intricate plot and complex characters, Devil's Breath is a gripping mystery that explores the darker side of human nature.
