Freundschaft und Liebe, Schrecken und Intrige. Eine Welt, die vom diabolischen Wunsch nach ewigem Leben und Ruhm regiert wird. Zurück auf den Friedhof der vergessenen Bücher.
Set in Barcelona in the turbulent 1920s, a young man, David Martin, makes his living writing novels under a pseudonym. But perhaps his dark imaginings are not as strange as they seem; in a locked room deep within his house, a bundle of letters hint at the mysterious death of the previous owner. As Martin gets the offer of a lifetime, the history of the house starts seeping into his life. Was a "Sunday Times" bestseller in HB.
