Synopsis
16-year-old orphan, Sally Lockhart, struck a man dead with just 3 words, "The Seven Blessings." She has no idea what they mean and why her drowned father's colleague died of fear when he heard them. Sally only knows that she'll do anything, say anything, be anything to find out... "Terrifying Victorian mystery filled w/strange letters, rat-haunted streets, the deadly fumes of opium, and at the heart of it all, a jewel soaked in blood." Juvenile/Young Adult Fiction
