(2) YA Translated by Lucia Graves. When Irene's friend Hannah dies, tragically and mysteriously, each member of her family gradually becomes aware of a malevolent evil at the Cravenmore estate that threatens their lives--a shadow with a mind and will of its own. The success of this mystery/horror/romance hinges largely on Zafón's accomplished storytelling: a clever plot, sympathetic characters, and a richly detailed 1930s Normandy setting.
