Illusion, Dark Musicals, The Second Act is complete and in the hands of my editor. We are hoping for an October release. Here is a little about the new title:
Rebecca Hope-Patko and her husband, Lord Justyn, are living
their dream. After a successful stint on Broadway, the super couple are heading
down under for a special showing of Phantom Returns, where their son Erik will
join them for his professional debut.
As soon as their plane touches down, they discover that a
serial killer is stalking Melbourne. At the theater, a strange series of
accidents leaves Rebecca fearing for the safety of her family. Could the two be
connected? Rebecca struggles to unravel the mystery while coping with
insecurities about her career which cause tension between her and Justyn.
It’s clear a very real Phantom is lurking among them, but
Rebecca is no kid anymore. She’s tired of the villain getting the upper hand.
This time, Rebecca is setting the trap. This opera diva will put her life and
her marriage on the line to shatter the illusions surrounding Queen’s Theater,
and stop the serial killer before they can strike again.
To celebrate the upcoming release of Illusion, I'm giving away Phantom, Dark Musicals Trilogy Book 1, for FREE on Amazon for a limited time. See how Rebecca and Justyn's story began, and catch up on the whole series before the new book hits virtual shelves.
The "Phantom" was a musical phenomenon that Rebecca had always found enchanting. She had no idea that her life was about to mirror the play that was her obsession. When her high school drama club chooses "Phantom" as their annual production, Rebecca finds herself in the middle of an unlikely love triangle and the target of a sadistic stalker who uses the lines from the play as their calling card. Rebecca lands the lead role of Christine, the opera diva, and like her character, she is torn between her two co-stars-Tom the surfer and basketball star who plays the lovable hero, and Justyn, the strangely appealing Goth who is more than realistic in the role of the tortured artist. Almost immediately after casting, strange things start to happen both on and off the stage. Curtains fall. Mirrors are shattered. People are hurt in true phantom style. They all seem like accidents until Rebecca receives notes and phone calls that hint at something more sinister. Is Justyn bringing to life the twisted character of the phantom? Or in real life are the roles of the hero and the villain reversed? Rebecca doesn't know who to trust, but she knows she's running out of time as she gets closer and closer to opening night. Only when the mask is stripped away, will the twenty-first century phantom finally be revealed.
