Dr. Henry Ion Fischer was once a rising star in the secretive Society of Concerned Scientists until the Boston Chinatown Massacre shattered his career and his conscience. Now, he runs The Modern Apothecary, a strange little shop dealing in custom potions and experimental cures, accompanied only by Brain, his wisecracking, shape-shifting corgi.
But when a string of brutal murders sweeps through Boston, targeting couples with eerie precision, Henry is pulled back into the world he tried to leave behind. All signs point to Vincente, a rogue Psychologist capable of twisting minds and weaponizing love itself.
Teaming up with Melody, a battle-hardened private investigator, and Alexander, a brilliant but unstable physicist, Henry must confront old demons, buried secrets, and a threat that warps the boundaries between science, magic, and madness.
Blending urban fantasy, scientific intrigue, and noir grit, A Matter Over Mind is perfect for fans of The Dresden Files and Foundation - a mind-bending tale of redemption, ethics, and the alchemy of the human spirit.
