Tanya-dogearedcopy: Sally Lockhart is a 16-year old woman finding her way in and through the vicissitudes of Victorian Era London. This is the first of a mystery series ostensibly written for Young Adults, but both the writing and the narration (Anton Lesser is the reader for the audiobook editions) are superb and will entertain adult audiences as well.
