Lyra Silvertongue's adventures in the North are long over--the windows between the
many worlds have been sealed, and her beloved Will is lost to her. She does still have
the alethiometer: the truth-telling device given to her by the master of Jordan
College, which guided her journey.Lyra doesn't know the full story of the
alethiometer, though. Or the role that young Malcolm Polstead played in bringing
both the instrument and baby Lyra to Jordan. She's now a twenty-year-old
undergraduate at St. Sophia's College. To her, Malcolm is Dr. Polstead, an overly
solicitous professor she would prefer to avoid.But intrigue is swirling around Lyra
once more. Her daemon Pantalaimon is witness to a brutal murder, and the dying
man entrusts them with secrets that carry echoes from their past. They learn of a city
haunted by daemons, of a desert said to hold the secret of Dust.Powerful forces are
about to throw Lyra and Malcolm together once again. And the dangers they face will
challenge everything
