Richard Mayhew stumbles across Door, an extraordinary young lady from a London that Richard never dreamed could exist. A single act of kindness brings a pair of unthinkably ruthless assassins to his flat, and sends him on a quest that could quickly end with his own untimely demise.

Richard Mayhew hates heights, but he finds himself trailing behind the mad Marquis De Carabas on his errand anyway. Just when he thinks he's finally finished with this whole affair, he finds that he's become a phantom in his own life.

With the enthusiastic assassins Croup and Vandemar on her trail, Door returns to her family home and finds her father's dying secret—one that could lead her to her true enemy, who has yet to reveal himself. In another part of London Below, Richard faces the terrifying Night's Bridge.

Richard must endure the Black Friars' ordeal, taking him to the blackest heart of his inner demons. His only to survive—while the Marquis de Carabas meets an even crueler fate at the hand of Mr. Croup.
