The year is 1856, and the Royal Opera House is at the height of it's glory, ruled by tradition and fueled with finery. But when a young composer casts a scullery maid as the lead in his new opera, the theater becomes the subject of many mysterious attacks. By tipping the scale of tradition at the Royal Opera House, Douglas Collinwood finds that in this town, everything comes with a cost. Especially when it comes to making history.
