The League of Lady Poisoners is a lushly illustrated, intoxicating journey through the lives of over 25 infamous women who turned to poison — for freedom, for revenge, or for power.
Written with wit and wicked insight, this beautifully bound volume unveils:
The cunning of Giulia Tofana, whose bespoke elixirs liberated countless women from cruel marriages
The fierce resistance of Sally Bassett, who struck back against enslavement in colonial Bermuda
A global gallery of accused poisoners, each portrayed with stunning, gothic illustration and sharp historical detail
Equal parts macabre, empowering, and absolutely riveting, it’s a cabinet of dark curiosities — perfect for true crime lovers, feminist historians, and anyone who enjoys their tea with a little hemlock.
Join the League. But mind your drink.
