Publisher's Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

The first book in the Sally Lockhart quartet, narrated by Adjoa Andoh.

A gripping new recording of Philip Pullman's nerve-shattering thriller, set in the murky streets and opium dens of Old London.

When 16-year-old Sally's father drowns in suspicious circumstances, she is left to fend for herself in Victorian London. Although she doesn't know it, she is already in terrible danger.

Good story Terrible character voices

Story seems really well put but the narration, I’m afraid is not so much.
I wish narrator had used her normal voice for all characters. Other character voices were either too high pitched or very mumbling.
