Hemlock & Silver T. Kingfisher

An instant Sunday Times bestseller! From bestselling and Hugo Award-winning author T. Kingfisher, Hemlock & Silver is a dark reimagining of Snow White steeped in poison, intrigue and treason of the most magical kind. Healer Anja regularly drinks poison. Not to die, but to save - seeking cures for those everyone else has given up on. But a summons from the King interrupts her quiet, herb-obsessed life. His daughter, Snow, is dying, and he hopes Anja's unorthodox methods can save her. Aided by a taciturn guard, a narcissistic cat and a passion for the scientific method, Anja rushes to treat Snow - but nothing seems to work. Nothing, that is, until she finds a secret world hidden inside a magic mirror. This dark realm may hold the key to what is making Snow sick. Or it might be the thing that kills them all ... 'Utterly spellbinding.' - Holly Black, author of Book of Night. 'A wonderfully offbeat fantasy ... as delightful as it is impressive.' - Heather Fawcett, author of Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries.
