About this ebook

The third book in the Anthony Award-winning Accidental Alchemist Mystery Series by USA Today bestselling author Gigi Pandian.

 

An unsolved crime from 1942. A dangerous secret linked to Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris. And a woman threatening to expose alchemist Zoe Faust's own secrets. 

 

Dorian Robert-Houdin, the three-and-a-half-foot gargoyle chef who fancies himself a modern-day Poirot, is slowly turning into stone. When he and Zoe Faust discover that a long-lost stone gargoyle with a connection to Dorian has reappeared in Europe, the stakes are even higher. 

 

From Paris, France, to Portland, Oregon, can centuries-old alchemist Zoe Faust unlock the Elixir of Life a second time to save her best friend?

    It feels like a different author wrote this book, as compared to the first two. There was a lot more backstory, the characters had some element of depth here in this book. Overall, this was enjoyable. However, if you haven't read the earlier books in the series, this one will feel like it concludes things rather easily. So, I recommend you reading the earlier books to get proper context of this one.

    This one was so much better than the first two books. Forget the murder but there actually was an element of mystery in this, there was a lot more plotting and story involved in this as compared to the first two books. Even then, I feel the ending was rushed and some things do manage to get themselves sorted rather conveniently. But it was a good read and so much better than the first two books, that I feel like reading the next two in the series.
