Invited to London by the Duke and Duchess of Lancaster, Erik is resigned to working on the Duke's amateur opera, but he is not prepared to face two figures from his past, Dr. Richmond and Celeste Renoit. Sculptress and murderer, Celeste Renoit, like Erik, was once interned in Dr. Richmond's asylum in Austria. Now with the patronage of London society, she prepares for an exhibition of her a series of busts based on Erik's unmasked face. No less disturbing is the rumor that Dr. Richmond is working on a manuscript of his most interesting cases, including that of the Phantom of the Opera. But darker deeds may be in store for Erik and his family. For bodies have been found floating in the river, drained of blood, their faces mutilated.
Revisited old conflicts that will hopefully, officially be ended with this book and never visited again. Erik made his choice and so did Christine and I don’t want the same conflict again.
I’m really interested how the children are going through their lives especially the one going to university.
As much as I love this series and want to continue it, I don't think I can pay 26 dollars for a paperback.
