Philip Pullman - The Tin Princess (2nd Hand Paperback)
Synopsis
A Sally Lockhart Mystery (#4)
After witnessing a mysterious explosion, three young Londoners - Becky, Jim, and Adelaide - journey to a tiny country high in the mountains of Central Europe in 1882. They’re an unlikely trio to lead a country, but when Adelaide’s husband, the new king, is assassinated, she finds herself fighting for the crown - and for her very life.
Jim Taylor, Sally's oldest friend, is engaged as bodyguard to a princess, but Crown Princess Adelaide of Razkavia is not what you'd expect. She's the slum-girl Jim has been searching for ever since she vanished ten years ago.
Now her life is in mortal danger, and together they must battle against unknown enemies in a country where no-one can be trusted.
This dramatic story of love, loyalty and adventure is the final novel in the quartet.
