This posthumous collection gathers gothic, Barcelona-set stories that orbit the Cemetery of Forgotten Books, from a boy who writes to impress the girl he loves to architects, dreamers, and ghosts whose lives are shaped by forgotten pages.

In late-1950s Spain, damaged but brilliant investigator Alicia Gris is ordered to find a vanished government minister. Her search leads from Madrid to Barcelona, pulling Daniel Sempere and the Cemetery of Forgotten Books into a final reckoning with the past.

Back in the Sempere bookshop, a mysterious stranger leaves a cryptic inscription for Fermin inside a rare edition of The Count of Monte Cristo. Daniel's attempt to protect his friend exposes Fermin's prison past and secrets linking back to The Angel's Game.

In 1920s Barcelona, struggling writer David Martin accepts a strange publisher's offer to create a book that will inspire a new faith. As he writes in a haunted house, the city's shadows close in and fiction, madness, and evil become hard to tell apart.
