Synopsis

The Devil’s Opera is a psychologically dark, character-driven novel that asks real and often uncomfortable questions about the performance of marriage and the masks women wear to survive. It is not a romance. It does not have a traditional happily ever after. Gothic stories rarely do.

They call it the Phantom Voice.

Haunting the mind. A thief of memory.

The greatest threat to high society is Valithia Mencini—the perfect noblewoman on stage, a siren for hire behind the scenes. She hijacks memories to fund her escape from the one person who is as charming and cunning as he is ruthless: her husband.

Lord Damian Mencini.

A man she was never meant to marry. A man who has made her his prisoner. Through her dowry, Damian gained her father’s opera house…as well as a cut of the criminal empire running underneath it.

So when her parents are mysteriously murdered, is it really a coincidence?

Now determined more than ever to break free, Valithia agrees to one last job: find out how the esteemed opera composer rose to fame so quickly.

What she discovers is far more sinister than she imagined.

For she has inadvertently summoned a devil worse than Damian.

And by the time the final curtain falls…that’s when the real show begins.
