APOTHECARY DIARIES GN VOL 01

After breaking a mysterious "curse" on the imperial heirs, a palace servant trained in herbal medicine is promoted to food taster--and plunged straight into dangerous palace intrigue in this beautifully illustrated historical mystery series!

Maomao, a sharp-witted young apothecary, is forced into servitude within the inner palace. Longing for freedom, she instead attracts attention by exposing the truth behind the heirs' illness. Her reward is a promotion under the watchful eye of the handsome eunuch Jinshi.

But palace life is never simple. Soon Maomao is back to brewing potions, uncovering secrets, and solving mysteries hidden behind silken curtains--where knowledge can be as deadly as poison.
