The #1 New York Times best-selling series

An abandoned orphanage on a mysterious island holds the key to supernatural secrets in this unusual and original first book in the one-of-a-kind Miss Peregrine's Peculiar Children series

A captivating blend of horror, dark fantasy, paranormal mystery, and time travel brought to life with more than 50 haunting vintage photographs

When a devastating family tragedy propels sixteen-year-old Jacob on a journey to a remote island off the coast of Wales, he stumbles upon the crumbling ruins of Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. As he explores the abandoned rooms, he uncovers a chilling truth--these children were not just peculiar, they were potentially dangerous, and they may have been quarantined for a reason. Trapped on this desolate island, their supernatural abilities and the mysteries surrounding them deepen. Impossibly, they may still be alive, their existence defying the laws of time and nature.

A spine-tingling fantasy illustrated with a strange collection of historical photographs, this unforgettable novel will delight adults, teens, and anyone who relishes an adventure in the shadows.

"A tense, moving, and wondrously strange first novel. The photographs and text work together brilliantly to create an unforgettable story."--John Green, New York Times best-selling author of The Fault in Our Stars

"Riggs deftly moves between fantasy and reality, prose and photography to create an enchanting and at times positively terrifying story."--Associated Press

"You'll love it if you want a good thriller for the summer. It's a mystery, and you'll race to solve it before Jacob figures it out for himself."--Seventeen

"One of the coolest, creepiest YA books."--PopSugar
