This novel tells the tale of a young detective from 1920's France, Vincent,who is asked to investigate an old murder on behalf of his father, who held his position before retiring. This case baffled the entire force, and left his father on the brink of insanity. Despite warnings, Vincent is determined to reveal the true killer. However, while visiting the location of the old murder to observe the building, he encounters an "interesting" person, to say the least- if one can even refer to her as a person any longer.

The Opera Ghost
Eighteen-year-old Christine is a singer in the Paris Opera. A strange man is watching her behind her dressing room and wants her to be his wife. He tricks her into believing that he is an angel from heaven, the Angel of Music. Eighteen-year-old Raoul is in love with her, but marriage is frowned upon because of the class difference between them. He is from minor royalty and she is from a poor family. He is suspicious of this "angel" and tries to rescue Christine from him when he kidnaps her and takes her to his home in the caverns underneath the opera house. This is my adaptation of the original book "The Phantom of the Opera" by Gaston Leroux. The book is now in the Public Domain. I have edited it for grammar and deleted a few parts that didn't contribute much to the story. I also changed the ending a bit. The illustrations are original pen and ink drawings by me. The story is not a "great romance," like the publicity from the stage play would like you to think. It is more of a crime/mystery/detective story.Complete
