Alchemy of Secrets

It starts with a class in an old movie theatre. Folklore 517: Local Legends and Urban
Myths, taught by a woman called the Professor.
Most students believe the Professor's stories are just fiction, but Holland St. James has
always been convinced that magic is real.
Her search for the truth leads her to a dazzling new world, a deadly ultimatum hidden at
the heart of Los Angeles, and into the path of a magnetic stranger who claims he's been
sent to save her life.
But everyone in this intoxicating new world is lying to her, even this stranger. And if she
can't figure out whom to trust, her magical reality could change from a Hollywood dream
to a nightmare.
