The Shadow in the North

Summary


Brought to you by Penguin.

The second book in the Sally Lockhart Quartet, narrated by Adjoa Andoh.

An elderly lady loses her money on an investment; a conjuror is pursued by thugs; and a clairvoyant mentions the name of the richest man in Europe and his mysterious company. Seemingly unconnected events set Sally Lockhart on the trail of an evil far more awful than she could ever imagine.
