The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafón
This is a book which is difficult to précis - a mystery, a love story, a story about loyalties both adhered to and discarded, it is beautifully written and gripping until the very end (even though I had solved the "mystery" about a third of the way through). I was constantly struck at the clever invention of the plot and although it isn't short I read it in two sessions. Riveting and very satisfying!
