I tried a short story by this author featuring her other protagonist, the archaeologist Jaya Jones. It didn't really ring my bell, but I was more intrigued by the premise of this book about a woman who has prolonged her own life through the secrets of alchemy.
This is a nice quick and cozy mystery. I recommend it and I enjoyed the way Pandian describes food. The main character Zoe Faust is vegan, like the author, and there are recipes for some plant-based delicacies in the back of the book.
