Summary

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 safer life.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Easy to listen too both from the story perspective as well as the voice of the reader. Definitely recommend.

Loved that this book came to a satisfactory conclusion. The narrator is easy to listen to and I enjoyed the range of voices. Who cannot help but fall in love with the little gargoyle. It’s such an interesting storyline, quite unlike other books out there. I do get over the vegan preaching and in-depth descriptions of all the food that is made and consumed, however.

if you can get past the pushy vegan tone and the explaining the same thing over and over and saying the same thing in 5 different ways content, then the rest is pretty good.

pretty good I suppose.

I love the reader! The character Zoe can be a bit frustrating at times though. I’m not a fan of drama caused by lack of communication between characters. Other than that, it is a good story to put on in the background and enjoy.

Enjoyable and easy to follow
