Combining vernacular photography with narratives in a medley of cinematic prose, Ransom Riggs returns readers to the world of Miss Peregrine's Peculiar Children in Hollow City, where Jacob Portman and his friends journey to London in a story that blends fantasy and history to tell a one-of-a-kind tale. Summary of the Book Picking up where the previous book left off, Jacob and his friends must journey to London after having escaped Miss Peregrine's island by the skin of their teeth. They hope to find a cure for Miss Peregrine's condition in the peculiar capital of the world. In their journey they run into a medley of characters who appear to want to help. But danger in this land lurks around every corner and in the darkness might yet hide a hollowgast, or perhaps something much, much worse.
