It�s 1955, and Benjamin Burrows and Janie Scott are trying to live a safe, normal life in America. It�s not easy, when they have the power to prevent nuclear disaster, and sinister forces are circling. Soon the advice of a mysterious, unscrupulous magician propels Janie and Benjamin into danger, and toward the land of the dead. Meanwhile, their friend Jin Lo washes up on a remote island where an American spy is stationed, and finds herself on the trail of a deadly threat in China. But she�s on the other side of the world�how can Janie and Benjamin reach her? The triumphant finale in the trilogy that began with Maile Meloy�s bestselling, critically acclaimed The Apothecary, and continued in its captivating sequel, The Apprentices, The After-Room is full of enchantment and heart, with Ian Schoenherr�s stunning illustrations throughout. From the Hardcover edition.
Solid end to the series and great on audio. I'll read anything Ann Patchett recommends (although I actually picked this trilogy up after reading Meloy's fantastic short story collection Both Ways Is the Only Way I Want It).
