À propos de cet e-book

In the shadowy alleys of an alternate Victorian London, where gaslamps flicker against the encroaching fog and the clatter of gears fills the air, a series of gruesome murders sends shockwaves through the city. The Clockwork Alchemist invites readers into a world where science and magic collide, exploring the delicate balance between reason and the arcane in a society teetering on the brink of chaos.


At the heart of this dark mystery is Julian, a brilliant yet enigmatic alchemist whose mastery of ancient secrets is rivaled only by his obsession with uncovering the truth. When the bodies of prominent citizens are discovered, each bearing the telltale signs of a sinister alchemical ritual, Julian is reluctantly drawn into an investigation that threatens to unravel the very fabric of his existence. His expertise in the arcane arts may provide vital clues, but it also casts a long shadow over his reputation, as whispers of dark magic and forbidden knowledge swirl around him.


Enter Inspector Faulkner, a stalwart detective whose commitment to logic and reason stands in stark contrast to Julian’s mystical inclinations. Tasked with solving the murders, Faulkner views Julian with suspicion but recognizes that the alchemist's unique insights are essential to his investigation. Together, they form an uneasy alliance, navigating the treacherous waters of a society rife with steampunk marvels and hidden dangers. As they delve deeper into the case, they uncover a conspiracy that binds the victims to a clandestine society of alchemists, where the line between science and sorcery blurs, and the stakes grow ever higher.


As the clock ticks down to a final confrontation, Julian and Faulkner must confront their own beliefs about the power of magic and the ethics of scientific exploration. Can they unravel the truth before the murderer strikes again, or will their own secrets doom them both? 


With its moody atmosphere, intricate world-building, and richly drawn characters, The Clockwork Alchemist immerses readers in a tale of intrigue that challenges the boundaries of reason and belief. In a world where gears turn and spells weave, the search for truth becomes a dangerous game, and the only certainty is that nothing is as it seems. Will you dare to turn the pages of this mesmerizing adventure?
