The Watcher in the Shadows
From the internationally bestselling author of The Shadow of the Wind comes a chilling mystery about one magical summer that turns into a nightmare . . .
When fourteen-year-old Irene Sauvelle moves with her family to Cape House on the coast of Normandy, she's immediately taken by the beauty of the place--its expansive cliffs, coasts, and harbors. There, she meets a local boy named Ishmael, and the two soon fall in love. But a dark plot is about to unfold involving a reclusive toymaker who lives in a gigantic mansion filled with mechanical beings and shadows of the past.
As strange lights shine through the fog surrounding a small, barren island, Irene's younger brother dreams of a dark creature hidden deep in the forest. And when a young girl is found murdered, her body at the end of a path torn through the woods by a monstrous, inhuman force, Irene and Ishmael wonder--has a demonic presence been unleashed on the inhabitants of Cape House? Together, they'll have to survive the most terrifying summer of their lives.

Mi afición a los dragones viene de largo. Barcelona es ciudad de dragones, que adornan o vigilan muchas de sus fachadas, y me temo que yo soy uno de ellos. Quizás por eso, por solidaridad con el pequeño monstruo, hace ya muchos años que los colecciono y les ofrezco refugio en mi casa, dragonera al uso. Al día de hoy ya son más de 400 criaturas dragonas las que hacen mi censo, que aumenta cada mes. Además de haber nacido en el año, por supuesto, del dragón, mis vínculos con estas bestias verdes que respiran fuego son numerosos. Somos criaturas nocturnas, aficionadas a las tinieblas, no particularmente sociables, poco amigas de hidalgos y caballeros andantes y difíciles de conocer.
