The First Flame

This is an Apple Books audiobook narrated by a digital voice based on a human narrator.

A hundred years after the fire that nearly erased the city, the formula that once burned through blood returns.
The Council has risen again, stronger and colder than before.
Deep underground, experiments continue—and this time, the fire doesn't just consume flesh, it remembers.

Doctor Vain is drawn back into the world he tried to leave behind, where the boundaries between science and faith blur, and every discovery demands a sacrifice.

A chilling continuation of The Anatomist's Code—a gothic medical thriller that explores the cost of resurrection, the hunger for immortality, and the fire that never dies.

Perfect for fans of The Alienist, Frankenstein, and Penny Dreadful.
