The Obsidian Dagger: Being Further Extraordinary Adventures of - Number 2 in series

Informationen zum Autor Catherine Webb was just fourteen when she wrote her extraordinary debut, Mirror Dreams. She also writes under the pseudonyms Kate Griffin and Claire North. She lives in London. Klappentext London, 1864. Victoria is queen, the Empire is in the fullness of health and all is as it should be in the world. Or is it? Horatio Lyle, of course, is no stranger to... well, strangeness. In fact, he finds the lure of the unknown quite invigorating. But having just survived the most frightening episode in his life, the last thing he wants is that pompous Lord Lincoln sticking his nose in again and demanding that he take on another case the police are too thick to solve. Of course, His Lordship can be painfully persuasive at times, so it should come as no surprise that Lyle, along with his young protégés Tess (the thief) and Thomas (the toff), and his faithful hound Tate (the smart one), is soon up to his cravat in events of a singularly unscientific nature. Zusammenfassung London! 1864. Victoria is queen! the Empire is in the fullness of health and all is as it should be in the world. Er. . . or is it?
