Jacob Portman awakens in his grandfather's Florida house after witnessing a horrifying face. He doesn't understand how he and Noor escaped from V's loop, but he knows Caul has returned. After fleeing a murderous hollow, Jacob and Noor rejoin Miss Peregrine and her peculiar children in Devil's Acre. The Acre suffers under desolations, violent storms of ash, blood, and bone that signal Caul's growing power. The villain has emerged from the Library of Souls stronger than before, his apocalyptic plans seemingly unstoppable. Jacob and his friends have one remaining chance to save peculiardom. They must bring Noor to where the seven prophesied ones will gather. First, they need to solve the mystery of this meeting place's location. The future of all peculiars depends on their success.
