Summary

Franz Hartmann (1838-1912) was a German medical doctor, initiate, theosophist, occultist, astrologer, and writer. Described as "one of the most important theosophical writers of his time", his works include several books on esoteric studies (including Magic: White and Black, Alchemy and Astrology, Occult Science in Medicine, The Four Pillars of Occult Medicine and In the Pronaos of the Temple of Wisdom) and biographies of Jakob Böhme and Paracelsus. He translated the Bhagavad Gita into German and was the editor of the journals Lotusblüthen (1893-1900) and Neue Lotusblüten (1908-1913). He collaborated with the mystic Carl Kellner and was at one time a co-worker of Helena Petrovna Blavatsky and Henry Steel Olcott at Adyar. In 1896 he founded a German Theosophical Society, also supporting the Guido-Von-List-Society (Guido-Von-List-Gesellschaft). According to Theodor Reuss he was one of the original founders of the magical order that would later be known as Ordo Templi Orientis, along with Reuss and Carl Kellner.
The Hartmann’s work Axioms of Alchemy, which we propose to our readers today, is one of the most interesting studies of Alchemy written by the great German initiate.

    The Home Office has asked Sir Bertrand Thorndike to head an investigation into stolen royal jewels. It's the perfect chance for Bertie to step out of his brother's long shadow. His superior, The Duke of Haverly, has a plan that makes him balk: in order to sell his cover, Bertie must play the part of a man looking for love, ready to reform his rakish ways. The duke is willing to let Bertie name his own investigative team, but his recommendation that the team include Philippa Cashel has Bertie on his guard. Does the duke—known for his behind-the-scenes machinations—have an ulterior motive? 
     
     
     
    Philippa Cashel escaped her life as one of society's best-known courtesans, devoting her life to helping other women in dire straits. So when Sir Bertrand Thorndike approaches her about joining his team as an agent of the Crown, she is skeptical. She's focused on getting her school for underprivileged women up and running, not in cloak-and-dagger skullduggery. Her hope is that if she labors hard enough at her charity work, she might begin to feel worthy of God's forgiveness. When one of Philippa's rescued girls is arrested for stealing the royal jewels and another is murdered, Philippa will risk partnering with Bertie to find the loot and stop the killer. Two brilliant minds—with two wary hearts—and one cunning deceiver are on a collision course in Regency England.
