“Book Descriptions: Blake O'Brien, an executive with a globetrotting career, returns to her native Manhattan from San Francisco after escaping—or so she thinks—her marriage to a dashing man who turned out to be a prince of darkness. She had been hoping for a fresh start but learns she has been poisoned with thallium, a deadly neurotoxin referred to as "the poisoner's poison." She is treated with the only known antidote: Prussian blue—the same synthetic pigment used in dazzling masterpieces like Van Gogh's "The Starry Night" and Hokusai's "The Great Wave." Almost unfathomably, the alchemist who invented Prussian blue was the rumored inspiration for Mary Shelley's character Dr. Frankenstein. The similarities to Blake's financier ex are striking as his true nature is revealed—including the discovery of a secret room in the brooding Victorian home they had once lived in.” DRIVE
