Alli encuentra La Sombra del Viento, un libro maldito que cambiara el rumbo de su vida y le arrastrara a un laberinto de intrigas y secretos enterrados en el alma oscura de la ciudad.  Ambientada en la enigmatica Barcelona de principios del siglo XX, este misterio literario mezcla tecnicas de relato de intriga, de novela historica y de comedia de costumbres, pero es, sobre todo, una tragedia historica de amor cuyo eco se proyecta a traves del tiempo. Con gran fuerza narrativa, el autor entrelaza tramas y enigmas a modo de munecas rusas en un inolvidable relato sobre los secretos del corazon y el embrujo de los libros, manteniendo la intriga hasta la ultima pagina.
