Synopsis "The Infernal Devices 2: Clockwork Prince (in English)"

This title is second in the "New York Times" bestselling urban fantasy series set in Victorian London. Still reeling from her terrifying confrontation with the Magister and her brother's betrayal, Tessa Gray is drawn ever deeper into the Shadowhunter's dark underworld of demons and danger. In a desperate attempt to help her friends, Tessa tries to uncover the truth about the Magister and learns that blames the Shadowhunters for the murder of his parents nearly a half century ago. But who were his parents, and why did the Shadowhunters kill them? Determined to unravel the secrets of his past, Tessa, Will and Jem journey to mist-shrouded Yorkshire, only to encounter corrupt Shadowhunters more intent on burying the past than finding the Magister - a past that holds the key not only to the enemy's motivations and weakness, but to the secret of what Tessa really is and what she was born to do. Meanwhile, Tessa's feelings for Jem and Will are growing more complicated, and soon she is forced to acknowledge that any choice she makes will either save the Shadowhunters of London - or end them for ever. This is the first book in the series, "Clockwork Angel", debuted at number one on the "New York Times" Bestseller list and spent ten weeks in the charts. Casting has begun for Cassandra Clare's other bestselling urban fantasy series, "The Mortal Instruments", and filming is expected to begin shortly. The exclusive online global cover reveal is planned for May 2011.

Vivió en Francia, Inglaterra y Suiza antes de los diez años. Pasó sus años de escuela secundaria en Los Ángeles, donde solía escribir historias para divertir a sus compañeros de clase, incluida una novela épica llamada "La bella Cassandra", basada en un cuento de Jane Austen del mismo nombre (y que más tarde inspiró su seudónimo actual).
