Summary
The Goonies meets Charade in the latest Accidental Alchemist Mystery.
A blackmailer obsessed with gold. A boyfriend who’s more than he seems. And a treasure hidden on the Oregon coast.
Alchemist Zoe Faust’s mentor Nicolas Flamel is back in her life, but catching up with him will have to wait. An elusive blackmailer has threatened to expose a dangerous alchemical secret. Zoe’s boyfriend is out of town protecting secrets of his own. So when rumors of a treasure map reach Zoe, she turns her back on what sounds like no more than a game.
Zoe’s mischievous living gargoyle best friend Dorian, who thinks of himself as a modern-day Poirot, is convinced the map is real - and that it’s the key to proving himself as valuable to Zoe as her human family. With the help of the neighborhood teenagers, Dorian sets out to find the treasure, risking more than he planned in the process. Rumors, treasures, and secrets intersect to unearth more than Zoe could have dreamed - and could leave her family changed forever.
Can Zoe stop the threat to the family unit she’s created?

Running Out Of Steam
Had the feeling that book 5 was running out of steam in respect of the storyline. A little too much padding and repetition of information from previous books. But still an enjoyable read for fans of Gigi Pandian and beautifully narrated as always by Julia Motyka

Hope the next adventure will be a bit less rushed at the end.
Love this series but am honestly not sure the extra characters really work, seems like dorien is being treated like a teenager which to me doesn’t really work. The end seemed rushed compared to the build up. Maybe deadlines or editing got in the way.
Still love it though and hope it continues, still definitely worth your time, performance was sublime as always.

Really enjoyable
I’m really enjoying this series of books. This one was a bit too recappy (probably not a real word but you know what I mean). But still really fun.

I hope that there will be ma y more in this series. The stories are benign, but very engaging. It's a long time since I enjoyed a series like I have this one. Brilliantly narrated.

Fire and fortune
LOVED IT! The fullest and most convoluted story yet! A full "cast" of characters to which the narrator did the Most marvellous of jobs making each and everyone distinctive. Just another wonderful book! Bravo!

Recapping overload
Good story but we don’t need to be told the past so many times , it spoils an otherwise engaging narrative.
