Book Overview
Dorian Robert-Houdin, the three-and-a-half-foot gargoyle chef who fancies himself a modern-day Poirot, is slowly turning into stone, and it's up to Zoe Faust to unravel the alchemical secrets that can save him. When they discover that a long-lost stone gargoyle with a connection to Dorian has reappeared in Europe, the stakes are even higher. From Portland to Paris, Zoe searches for the hidden knowledge she needs, but a cold case that harkens back to 1942 throws her off course. With an ailing friend desperately trying to discover his own Elixir of Life and a new romantic interest offering the first chance at love she's had in nearly a century, Zoe is torn between a dangerous form of alchemy and her desire for a normal life. Praise: "Pandian's imaginative third Accidental Alchemist mystery...will please those who like their cozies filled with magic."-- Publishers Weekly "The unbelievable premise is no problem given the inventive powers of Pandian."-- Kirkus Reviews "Pandian writes fun, light-hearted mysteries and is an expert at developing sympathetic characters, both major and minor."-- Bustle "A quirky, incredible series...The characters are immensely unique and the writing is A+, so you won't want to miss a word."-- Suspense Magazine
