Beskrivelse
1916, Calcutta. A man pauses for breath outside the ruins of Jheeter's Gate station knowing he has only hours to live. Pursued by assassins, he must ensure the safety of two newborn twins, before disappearing into the night to meet his fate.
1932. Ben and his friends are due to leave the orphanage which has been their home for sixteen years. Tonight will be the final meeting of their secret club, in the old ruin they christened The Midnight Palace. Then Ben discovers he has a sister - and together they learn the tragic story of their past, as a shadowy figures lures them to a terrifying showdown in the ruins of Jheeter's Gate station.
From the bestselling author of THE SHADOW OF THE WIND, this is the haunting story of a secret society and a labyrinthine railway station with a dark past.

Fantastisk bog! Lånte den på biblioteket, og er bare blevet hooked! Det skal lige siges at handlingen sådan først "rigtig" starter omkring halvvejs inde i bogen, men stadig alle 298 sider værd at læse! Den er spændende, og absolut fangende, hvis bare man har lidt tålmodighed og et åbent sind :) Helt klart en af de mange bøger jeg køber inden længe ;)
