Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. After the frightful events of last autumn

place of distortions and lies  but she has not settled into what that means for her humanity.
As Louisa struggles to figure out whether she is worthy of redemption  the devilish Mr.
Morningside plans a fete--one that will bring new guests to Coldthistle House. From wicked
humans to Upworlders  angelic beings who look down on Mr. Morningside's monstrous staff  all
are armed with their own brand of self-righteous justice. Even a man claiming to be Louisa's
father has a role to play  though what his true motive is  Louisa cannot tell. The conflicts
will eventually come to a head on the grounds of Coldthistle House--and the stakes include
Louisa's very soul. In this second book of Madeleine Roux's suspenseful House of Furies series
