Austin Hilary, like most New Yorkers, is good at hiding secrets. Until the day he stumbles across an ancient incantation that magically brings gargoyles to life - and might just solve the mystery of his parent’s disappearance.
Now Austin and his little sister Pilar must try to decipher clues hidden in long-forgotten, legendary landmarks - from the Cloud Club in the Chrysler Building to Track 61 in Grand Central Terminal.
But when Austin learns that the enemy is linked to his lost parents he faces a new dilemma: Save his parents or save his city? Austin realizes he will have to make an impossible choice - but first they must stay alive.
