The last thing Jacob Portman saw before the world went dark was a familiar, terrifying face. Suddenly, he and Noor find themselves back in the place where it all began—his grandfather's house. Jacob doesn't know how they escaped V's loop and ended up in Florida. But one thing he knows for sure: Caul is back. Jacob and Noor reunite with Miss Peregrine and the strange children in Devil's Acre. Acre suffers destruction - hurricanes of ash, blood and bone - terrible omens of Caul's gathering army. Risen from the Library of Souls, more powerful than ever, Caul seems unstoppable in his apocalyptic plans. There is only one hope left - to deliver Nur to the meeting place of the seven prophesied strange children, because only they will be able to reveal the secret of the enemy’s whereabouts.
