“Did you check the book in my laboratory?” I asked.
Surely the book that Emmett had recorded strange poisons in would have the answers we needed.
But Becky shook her head and frowned.
“Which one?” she asked.
I realized then that I hadn’t actually taken the time to show my assistant the book. Things had been so frantic and hectic around here lately that I hadn’t gotten
