Description
'This is is explicitly, and joyously, a book about books, about what can be learned from them and what is lost when they are lost' GUARDIAN'Full of stylish writing, Gothic atmosphere and love letters to 19th-century novels' WASHINGTON POSTBarcelona, 1957.
It is Christmas, and Daniel Sempere and his wife, Bea, have much to celebrate.
They have a beautiful new baby son, and their close friend FermÃn Romero de Torres is about to be wed.
But their joy is eclipsed when a a mysterious figure with a porcelain hand enters the Sempere bookshop, threatening to divulge a terrible secret that has been buried for two decades. His appearance plunges FermÃn and Daniel into a dangerous adventure that will take them back to the 1940s - the early days of Franco's dictatorship and the very heart of the Cemetery of Forgotten Books. The Prisoner of Heaven is a rich, labyrinthine tale of love, literature, passion, and revenge set in a dark, gothic Barcelona, in which the heroes of The Shadow of the Wind and The Angel's Game must contend with a nemesis that threatens to destroy them.
