Alchemy of Secrets

Alchemy of Secrets is a rich blend of mystery, history, and supernatural intrigue. Set against the backdrop of Sydney’s old neighborhoods, the story follows Rosetta as she unravels her family’s tangled past after a tragic accident. What begins as a search for answers quickly spirals into a web of hidden histories, occult rituals, and buried truths that refuse to stay forgotten.

Leslie’s writing is atmospheric and layered, weaving together past and present with ease. The pacing is measured—slow enough to build intrigue, but steady enough to keep the tension alive. The novel’s greatest strength lies in its sense of place; the city itself feels alive, humming with secrets just beneath the surface.

Part family drama, part historical mystery, and part supernatural thriller, Alchemy of Secrets explores how the past shapes the present and how truth can be both powerful and dangerous. It’s a thoughtful, eerie read that lingers in the mind long after the story ends
