A royal poison-taster in the court of Henry VIII. A modern-day whistleblower in the mountains of Tennessee. Across five centuries, two timelines intertwine in a legacy of memory, resistance, and sacrifice. Thomas Tester was trained to taste for danger—his family's duty to shield the crown from those who would kill for power. But in a court full of ambition and betrayal, the greatest threat may not be the poison, but the politics behind it. Five hundred years later, Dr. Grace Blackwood uncovers data manipulation by a pharmaceutical giant targeting Appalachian communities with "non-addictive" painkillers. As whistleblowers turn up dead and files vanish, Grace must choose between her safety and the truth—between her past and a future still being written. Bound by blood, memory, and a shared name, their stories converge in a battle not just for survival, but for legacy. From Tudor palaces to Appalachian hollers, this gripping dual-timeline novel explores what it means to carry knowledge others fear, to resist systems that profit from pain, and to pass on truth when silence is safer. Some families test for gold. Theirs test for poison. And in every century, someone must stand between the chalice and the crown.
