Apothecary Melchior And The Mystery Of St Olaf's Church (2015) - Plot & Excerpts
His head was spinning; there were too many questions to which he had no answer, which maybe he did not wish to answer. He had seen three violent deaths in a single day, and that was too much even for an apothecary. And perhaps he did not dare to fall asleep. He had managed to drive memories of the curse that had seized him the night before down into the depths of his soul, but the pain still remained. Just when he had secretly begun to hope that the prayers he and Keterlyn had recited might be helping, that the saints had heard his plea, that he was finally free from his bloodline’s curse … No, he had not been freed. It had returned crueller than ever before, just as always with each new onslaught. This was known by all Wakenstedes: the curse never gets easier; it will only become more brutal. Yesterday it had been the pain over his father’s death that had tortured him. The time before it had sparked by a realization of his own mortality and over his sins – because he had never received any reassurance that they would ever be absolved.
