This second novel begins in 1940, immediately after the first book ended. Having escaped Miss Peregrine's island by the skin of their teeth, Jacob and his new friends flee to London, the peculiar capital of the world, where they encounter Gypsies, a whole peculiar menagerie, and new children with peculiar gifts, all while they frantically scramble to save their headmistress. Complete with dozens of newly discovered (and thoroughly creepy) vintage photographs, this new adventure will delight fantasy readers of all ages.
