Book Synopsis
A stolen masterpiece. A brilliant woman written out of history. And a recipe for a lost color worth killing for.
In the spellbinding eighth installment of the Accidental Alchemist Mysteries, centuries-old alchemist Zoe Faust and living gargoyle Dorian Robert-Houdin face their most colorful case yet!
Zoe's hard-won peaceful life is shattered when a devious thief targets her most prized possession-a vibrant portrait that's her last connection to her long-dead brother. It's a painting that also holds the secrets of a forgotten artist who created recipes for the most breathtaking colors ever seen.
When the canvas disappears and murder follows, Zoe must unravel a palette of deadly puzzles. With her quick-witted sidekick Dorian and their eclectic group of friends, Zoe races to catch a killer, evade a secret society, and recover her beloved painting. But the quest is bigger than solving a present-day crime. Can Zoe finally set the historical record straight for a gifted painter erased from the history of art?
Bursting with vivid characters, fascinating history, and touches of whimsical magic and culinary alchemy, The Alchemist of Brushstrokes and Brimstone is a cozy fantasy mystery that will leave you breathlessly turning pages until the final stroke.
