So - what's a sci-fi/fantasy addict doing reading a High School romantic thriller?
Having fun! That's what!
I'm fortunate enough to have actually seen "Phantom of the Opera" about 5 years ago in London's West End. So, I was intrigued to find out what this - a romance/thriller set in the final year of a group of students at High School was about.
When her high school drama club chooses "Phantom" as their annual production, quiet, clumsy, shy and retiring Rebecca Hope is forced to come out her shell and is amazed to land the lead female role of Christine.
Her success leads to a love triangle between Tom, the High School heart-throb who lands the role of Roul, and the dark and mysterious loner, Lord Justyn Patko, who wins the coveted role of Erik, the Phantom.
That isn't the only pressure she has to face however, as initial joy quickly turns fear when events chillingly begin to follow a pattern mirrored in "Phantom" itself. Threats, warnings, accidents, murder!
Who is responsible? Who is stalking Rebecca? Is it one of the two new men in her life, jelous of the others attentions on their intended lover?
Find out - read "Phantom" for yourself.
It's easy to read, has a great pace, has enough twists and turns to keep you guessing - AND - you'll enjoy the deeper message the story conveys...I know I did!
A 5 Star treat - well done Laura!
