Barcelona, 1945: A city slowly heals from its war wounds, and Daniel, an antiquarian book dealer's son who mourns the loss of his mother, finds solace in a mysterious book entitled The Shadow of the Wind, by one Julian Carax. But when he sets out to find the author's other works, he makes a shocking discovery: someone has been systematically destroying every copy of every book Carax has written. In fact, Daniel may have the last of Carax's books in existence. Soon Daniel's seemingly innocent quest opens a door into one of Barcelona's darkest secrets--an epic story of murder, madness, and doomed love.

Daniel Semperes Leben im grauen Barcelona der Nachkriegszeit erfährt eine drastische Wende, als er die Schicksalsbahn eines geheimnisvollen Buches kreuzt. Er gerät in ein Labyrinth abenteuerlich verknüpfter Lebensläufe, und es ist, als wiederhole sich vergangene Geschichte in seinem eigenen Leben.

Hidden in the heart of the old city of Barcelona is the "cemetery of lost books", a labyrinthine library of obscure and forgotten titles. To this library, one cold morning in 1945, a man brings his ten-year-old son Daniel. Allowed to choose one book from the shelves, Daniel pulls out La Sombra del Viento (The Shadow of the Wind) by Julian Carax. Daniel is captivated by the novel from the very first page and grows up haunted by the unusual story of its author. Then one night, Daniel is approached by a figure who reminds him of a character from the book, a character who turns out to be the devil. This man is tracking down every last copy of Carax's works in order to burn them. What begins as a case of literary curiosity turns into a race to find out the truth behind the life and death of Julian Carax and to save those he left behind.
