About the book: year / The heavenly ether permeates everything that exists and makes life itself possible, but this invisible element is not capable of correcting human nature, from the creation of the world to the present day people continue lie, kill and betray. Philip Oleander von Cheren is also not a paragon of virtue, although he devoted himself to identifying warlocks and adepts of the beyond from among the learned people. Day and night, the investigating master keeps pistols and a magic wand covered with witchcraft formulas at hand, and his assistants are no strangers to breaking the law and using blades and spells. But weapons are not capable of cutting through the web of other people’s intrigues. Evidence disappears, witnesses die, time slips through your fingers, and all that remains is to follow the threads of the conspiracy in the hope that another chance to make your move will arise..
