Sixteen-year-old Jacob Portman’s life changes forever when a family tragedy sends him to a remote island off the coast of Wales. There, he discovers the ruins of Miss Peregrine’s orphanage—and a collection of mysterious photographs of children with extraordinary abilities. But were they simply tricks of the camera, or something far stranger? As Jacob explores further, he realizes that the peculiar children may still be alive… and that danger lurks closer than he ever imagined.
