An eternally young alchemist. A gargoyle who fancies himself Poirot. A Murder House for sale the week before Halloween.

Zoe Faust has run from her past for centuries. She didn't plan on settling down. She didn't plan on falling for a mortal man. She certainly didn't plan on the gargoyle.

Now Zoe, her fiancé, and her French chef gargoyle best friend Dorian have found an enchanting home with a hidden cottage for Dorian. It’s perfect for their little family. Except for one thing. Forty years ago, the night before Halloween, a woman was murdered in their dream house. Or was she?

When an enigmatic stranger arrives and insists that a mythological Irish witch holds the secret to the unsolved crime, Halloween turns deadly once more. Refusing to let Zoe lose the home she's waited centuries for, Dorian the gargoyle sets out to crack the case.

Can an alchemist, a gargoyle, and a teashop-owning detective solve two Halloween murders before an innocent man takes the fall and their perfect home slips away?

The Alchemist of All Hallows Eve is the whimsical tenth book in USA Today bestselling author Gigi Pandian's Anthony Award-winning Accidental Alchemist mystery series. If you love cozy fantasy, Agatha Christie-style whodunits, and found family, you'll adore this charming Halloween mystery, complete with Irish fortune-telling recipes.

Reviews for The Alchemist of All Hallows Eve

★★★★★ The best installment so far. I just loved this book with its charming notes about the history of Halloween, the love between Max and Zoe, and let’s not forget the wonderful Dorian with his delectable treats. This is a wonderful installment to a charming series, and I know fans of this series will love this latest. —NetGalley reviewer Penny N.

★★★★★ Imagine a live gargoyle who thinks he is part Julia Child and part Hercule Poirot, he is just a joy to read about! —Goodreads reviewer Mary

★★★★★ A charming, clever romp... Pandian has created another real winner here. —NetGalley reviewer Neil P.

★★★★ I adored this book, it is cozy and clever and the characters and the plot sucked me in. —NetGalley reviewer Kelsey M.

★★★★ It's as if I'd asked the author to come up with the perfect combination of all my favorite things: alchemy, the Salem witch trials, Portland, Notre Dame, gargoyles, Agatha Christie, found family, and even plant-based foods. This time, we add in a "murder house" that sounds like it was ripped straight from my dreams (the reading alcove? the orchard? that kitchen????) - minus the murder, of course! Gigi Pandian also manages to outdo herself with every new installment. —NetGalley reviewer Brittany F.

★★★★ Fun, campy, and sweet, this novel gives everything you hope it would for a cozy halloween season. I haven't read any of the other books in this series but found it very welcoming to newcomers. —NetGalley reviewer Betsy S.
