Beschreibung

A dark mystery lurks in the heart of Calcutta in this young adult novel from bestselling author Carlos Ruiz Zafón, translated from the original Spanish by acclaimed translator Lucia Graves.

Set in Calcutta in the 1930s, The Midnight Palace begins on a dark night when an English lieutenant fights to save newborn twins Ben and Sheere from an unthinkable threat. Despite monsoon-force rains and terrible danger lurking around every street corner, the young lieutenant manages to get them to safety, but not without losing his own life...

Years later, on the eve of Ben and Sheere's sixteenth birthday, the mysterious threat reenters their lives. This time, it may be impossible to escape. With the help of their brave friends, the twins must take a stand against the terror that watches them in the shadows of the night—and face the most frightening creature in the history of the City of Palaces.

definitely my favorite of the three niebla-novels Carlos wrote. absolutely loved the characters (their friend group dynamic was absolutely adorable) and I felt like it was the least creepy of the three?? although still very eerie. never ever would have survived this story as a child, i would have been way too scared. but as always absolutely loved the little sprinkled in sentences of life-wisdom.
