Nocturne
Cheryl MahoneyA delightful retelling of the Phantom of the Opera from a new perspective, exploring love, betrayal, and the masks we all hide behind.
Paris, 1881. Ballet dancer Meg Giry befriends a newcomer to the Opera Garnier, soprano Christine Daaé. As their friendship grows, both women are hiding secrets: Christine is receiving singing lessons from a supposed Angel of Music, and Meg once met a very human Opera Ghost, forever changing her view of the Opera's specter.
Behind the Phantom's disguise is Erik, a man of many talents and many masks. When he falls in love with Christine, he can't resist at last allowing himself to be seen. But love without trust can only lead to heartbreak, as events escalate and the Phantom of the Opera begins to lose control.
With strange events unfolding and the pieces failing to add up, Meg tries to unravel the truth about the Phantom - and about Christine. Meg will discover that not all is as it seems and the masks we can see may be the least concealing ones.
