My new book The Atlas of Deadly Plants is out this week, published by Greenfinch, so I thought I'd celebrate by offering up a series of mini-podcast episodes digging into some of the themes and facts from the book - just in time for Halloween!

In this mini-ep you'll hear a chapter from the book about Abrus precatorius, the rosary pea.
