The year is 1895, and famed composer Johann Bergmann is dead, leaving Matilda Brackenborough, a young Englishwoman who wanted nothing more than to study with her longtime idol, in the dust. With only a handful of francs and a book of half-written compositions to her name, Matilda must find her own way in the chaotic world of the Parisian music scene. Along the way, she meets a sword-slinging opera singer, a violinist with a mysterious past, and a new composition teacher who might just be the prime suspect in Bergmann's murder. All of them have something to hide. Will Matilda and her new friends solve the mystery before Bergmann's killer strikes again?

ECHOES FROM THE PHANTOM
A cursed melody. A love that defies centuries. A second chance... in a new life. Paris, 1880: In the depths of the Garnier Opera House, the Phantom composes his final, forbidden symphony-a haunting spell to bind his soul to Christine's forever. But when a vengeful mob closes in, he makes a desperate choice: to sacrifice his life... for a future they may never see. 124 years later, Christina Martin arrives at a prestigious performing arts school in New York-unaware that her voice, her dreams, and even her soul carry echoes from a life long buried. As eerie coincidences mount and a mysterious young professor with mismatched eyes enters her world, Christina is drawn into a love story she can't remember... but her heart refuses to forget. In a world where music is magic and memories are more than just dreams, can love truly conquer time? Or will the shadows of the past claim them once more?

The Shadow's Melody || The Phantom of the Opera || Book One
|| Book 1 of The Shadow's Melody || As a maid here at the new Opéra Populaire I can certainly sense something different. Something missing. It lacked him. The Opera Ghost who disappeared. I know I should let it go. I know I shouldn't constantly think about a dead man. A murderer. But I simply can't. I can't forget about that man I fell in love with those many years ago. I yearned to hear his angelic voice again. I begged for it. Hoped for it. Prayed for it. I called for him in my dreams. The man they called The Phantom of the Opera. I would never have guessed that my hopes and prayers would soon be answered.Lengkap
The Phantom of the Opera (1909)
First published in French as a serial in 1909, The Phantom of the Opera is a riveting story that revolves around the young, Swedish Christine Daaé. Her father, a famous musician, dies, and she is raised in the Paris Opera House with his dying promise of a protective angel of music to guide her. After a time at the opera house, she begins hearing a voice, who eventually teaches her how to sing beautifully. All goes well until Christine's childhood friend Raoul comes to visit his parents, who are patrons of the opera, and he sees Christine when she begins successfully singing on the stage. The voice, who is the deformed, murderous 'ghost' of the opera house named Erik, however, grows violent in his terrible jealousy, until Christine suddenly disappears. The phantom is in love, but it can only spell disaster. Leroux's work, with characters ranging from the spoiled prima donna Carlotta to the mysterious Persian from Erik's past, has been immortalized by memorable adaptations. Despite this, it remains a remarkable piece of Gothic horror literature in and of itself, deeper and darker than any version that follows This is a public domain workLengkap
