The Oversight of London has been sworn for millennia to prevent the natural and the supernatural worlds from preying on each other. Now, at its lowest ebb, with its headquarters destroyed and its last members scattered far and wide, this secret society will battle for survival and face the harshest foe it has ever met: itself.

Those who belong to the secret society called The Oversight know many things. They know cold iron will hold back the beasts in the darkness. They know it is dangerous to stand between two mirrors. And they know that despite their dwindling numbers, it remains their duty to protect humanity from the predations of the supernatural. And vice versa. But two of the society's strongest members, Mr. Sharp and Sara Falk, are trapped in the world between the mirrors, looking for each other, searching for a way back home.

Only five still guard the borders between the worlds. Only five hold back what waits on the other side. Once the Oversight, the secret society that polices the lines between the mundane and the magic, counted hundreds of brave souls among its members. Now their number can be tallied on a single hand. When a drunkard brings a screaming girl to the Oversight's London headquarters, it seems their hopes for a new recruit will be fulfilled - but the girl is a trap, her appearance a puzzle the five remaining guardians must solve or lose each other, and their society, for good.

"L'Oversight è più pericolosa quando è in difficoltà. Ci sono molti morti o dispersi che non ricordano..." I membri dell'Oversight di Londra hanno fatto giuramento per millenni di impedire al mondo naturale e quello soprannaturale di darsi la caccia a vicenda. Ora che sta attraversando il suo momento più difficile, con la sede distrutta e gli ultimi membri sparsi chissà dove, questa società segreta dovrà combattere per la sopravvivenza e affrontare il nemico più insidioso che abbia mai incontrato: sé stessa.

L'attesissimo sequel di "Oversight", imperdibile per i fan di Neil Gaiman e Philip Pullman. Coloro che appartengono alla società segreta Oversight conoscono molte cose. Sanno per esempio che il ferro freddo è in grado di ricacciare le bestie della notte nell'oscurità, o che ritrovarsi tra due specchi non sempre è una buona idea... E sanno anche che il loro compito è proteggere l'umanità dalle forze soprannaturali, nonostante il loro numero stia drasticamente diminuendo e i nemici siano ormai alle porte.

Londra, metà Ottocento. L'organizzazione segreta Oversight ha il compito sia di proteggere gli esseri umani privi di poteri magici dalle scorribande degli esseri fatati di ogni genere, sia di difendere il mondo magico dalle ingiustizie perpetrate - più o meno involontariamente - dall'umanità che avanza a grandi passi verso la modernizzazione.
