the shadow in the north is the second book in a quartet by philip pullman and
charts the adventures of sally lockhart (billie piper), a feisty young victorian
heroine.
an elderly lady loses her money on an investment, a conjuror is pursued by
thugs, a clairvoyant sees a brutal murder in a forest and a glass coffin then
whispers the name of the richest man in europe.
these seemingly unconnected events set sally lockhart on the trail of an evil
far more awful than she could ever imagine - the hopkinson self-regulator - a
super-weapon in the hands of a scandinavian madman axel bellmann!
once again pullman's much-loved and fearless heroine sally lockhart embarks on a
mission - this time to find out why her elderly client's investment crashed and
what links the clairvoyant's murderous vision to the rich industrialist,
bellmann. as sally closes in on the truth, it becomes devastatingly clear that
her life will never be the same again.
billie piper heads up an all-star cast including jj feild, jared harris, julian
rhind-tutt, matt smith, john standing and hayley atwell.
philip pullman's cleverly woven plot has been adapted by bafta winning writer,
adrian hodges (the ruby in the smoke) and is set in the heart of victorian london.
the drama is produced by kate bartlett, directed by john alexander and is a bbc
wgbh boston co-production.

is moved to the end (after end credits) that's suppost to be in the middle
