In a spectacular gothic castle of mechanical revolving doors, moving floors and unstable staircases broods Count Ostrov, obsessive collector of puzzles and stories. He charges Nicholas Flood, the legendary English printer, with the task of creating an infinite book; a story with no beginning and no end. But when Nicholas meets the Count's beautiful daughter Irena, a forbidden romance begins, and soon ends, as Nicholas is swiftly imprisoned in the castle's dungeon. Once free, he embarks on a perilous journey through Venice, Alexandria, China and London, on a quest for knowledge, and into the path of greater danger.
