Goldenhand happens six months following the occasions of Abhorsen and follows the novella Nicholas Sayre and the Creature in the Case, which is featured in Across the Wall.

Lirael lost among her hands in the binding of Orannis, however now she has a fresh hand, among gilded steel and Charter Magic. On the dangerous trip, Lirael comes back to her child years house, the Clayr’s Glacier, where she was once another Assistant Librarian. There, a young woman from your faraway North brings her a note from her long-dead mom, Arielle. It is a warning about the Witch without Face. But who’s the Witch, and what’s she preparing? Lirael must use her new power to save lots of the Aged Kingdom from this great danger-and it must be forestalled not merely in the living world but also in the frosty, remorseless river of Loss of life.
