Unholy Chemistry
As tourists soak in the ancient healing waters of Bad Kissingen's black-and-white tiled spas, they're unaware that the town's prestigious university guards deadly secrets: medieval alchemical manuscripts that survived the Counter-Reformation purge, and Nazi files documenting war experiments with an alchemy stolen from a dangerous family.
When Max Frost proudly introduces Liberté Diallo-Delacroix, a spirited New Orleans taste alchemist, to his picturesque hometown, his "quirky" seminary friends and what remains of his once-prestigious family, she thinks her biggest challenge is dodging thinly veiled Catholic conversion attempts and getting under Max's clerical collar. But soon they discover something sinister at his beloved university. A nefarious scholar is perfecting what Max's grandfather, Otto Frost, could not: emotional alchemy powerful enough to manipulate minds, seize power, and ignite another world war. Racing to stop this dark propagandist, Max and Liberté hunt for answers along Kissingen's autumnal, cobblestoned streets, through hidden passageways and underground libraries where secrets lie bound in leather and inscribed in blood.
As autumn deepens toward winter, so does the intimacy between a man trained in denial and a woman raised to distrust. But their growing feelings may be their greatest vulnerability in a place where love itself can be alchemically bottled, manipulated... and used against them.
Some doors, once opened, cannot be closed again.
