Twelve-year-old Meggie loves books. So does her father, Mo, a bookbinder, although he hasn't read aloud to her since her mother mysteriously disappeared. They live a quiet life until the night a stranger knocks at their door. The scarred man, who calls himself Dustfinger, has come with a warning that forces Mo to reveal an extraordinary secret - when he reads aloud, he literally brings the characters to life. The last time he did this, he not only brought several fictional characters into the real world, but he sent Meggie's mother into the story. Now Capricorn, a sadistic villain who will stop at nothing to twist Mo's talent to his own dark means, has tracked down Mo and his daughter. Their only hope is to find the author of the novel, a scary book called Inkheart, and persuade him to write a different ending...
