The Shadow in the North by Philip Pullman

Description: Set against the backdrop of a veiled and misty Victorian underworld, the story of Sally Lockhart - female entrepreneur and expert financial advisor - and her allies Jim and Fred, begins to unfold as news of the disappearance of the steamship Ingrid Linde reaches the ears of the intrepid trio.

As they investigate the loss, they are unwittingly drawn into a dark and sinister plot fuelled by the business dealings of the cruel and heartless Bellman. As their investigations continue, strange and supernatural forces intercede, leading them deeper into the menacing back streets of Victorian London and taking them on a journey into the very heart of true evil.
