A mind-bending gaslamp mystery. Think Inception meets The Night Circus. Aurora’s greatest entrepreneur has been murdered, and only the truth will save Alchemist Ortez from the gallows. Facing a heated courtroom of strangers, he must now recall the events that brought him here as a fellow alchemist probes his memory. Such is the job of alchemists: administering elixirs in order to see into the minds of men. Their dreams. Their nightmares. Their secrets. But while everyone believes him guilty, Alchemist Ortez knows what they do not.  He was hired by the victim for a job unlike any they could imagine. Nor would they ever guess what other mysteries lie buried beneath the mountain metropolis of Aurora, a cave-enclosed city where countless gas lamps illuminate the endless night. This story is now a stub, but you can read my new Royal Road series, Sailor's Rise. If you would like to keep reading Trial of the Alchemist, you can do so on Audible (Canadian link) or Kindle (including Kindle Unlimited). Thank you!
