Publisher's summary

We all have a secret buried under lock and key in the attic of our soul. This is mine . . .

In May 1980, 15-year-old Óscar Drai suddenly vanishes from his boarding school in the old quarter of Barcelona. For seven days and nights no one knows his whereabouts . . .

His story begins in the heart of old Barcelona, when he meets Marina and her father German Blau, a portrait painter. Marina takes Óscar to a cemetery and at 10 am, a coach pulled by horses appears. From it descends a woman dressed in black, her face shrouded, wearing gloves, holding a single rose. She walks over to a gravestone that bears no name, only the mysterious emblem of a black butterfly with open wings.

When Óscar and Marina decide to follow her they begin a journey that will take them to the heights of a forgotten, post-war Barcelona, a world of aristocrats and actresses, inventors and tycoons; and a dark secret that lies waiting in the mysterious labyrinth beneath the city streets.

Amazing book! I couldn't stop reading it

The story is gripping and without even realizing it, I was trapped by its magic.

Heartbreakingly Beautiful

"The truth is safe from people."

Zafón is the best writer of our time. He weaves magic and sadness and beauty into magnificent stories.
