Description
20 years after being shot at and surviving, Christine Daaé and the Phantom have made a happy life together. They've raised Gustave, war hero and musical genius, and a pair of twins, Maurice and Melodie. Unlike her siblings, Melodie was born with her father's trademark deformity. Melodie knows her father can't bear to be around her because she reminds him of his failures in life. One of which she is. Despite their families pleas, father and daughter can't seem to get along. They fight and rage at each other. But after one of their more heated fights, Melodie has had enough. She runs away from home and finds sanctuary in a run-down old theater, filled with strange secret passages behind the walls. There she stays and there she catches the eye of a young piano-playing stagehand. Melodie, wanting to get closer to the man, gives him piano lessons each night. But their lessons don't go unnoticed. A hate-filled mystery lingers just out of sight and threatens to crush Melodie and her stagehand. And on top of this dangerous mystery, ghosts from the past enter into their lives once more. Will father and daughter learn to fix things between them? Or will this mystery kill any chance they have? ---------- Takes place after 'Love Never Dies'
