Rondeau: A Novel of Gaston Leroux's the Phantom of the Opera

The Madrigals Continue... While on the run and hiding in Germany, Erik lives like everyone else-until one nobleman strikes back... When Anna's secret past is revealed and she is captured by Raoul's bounty hunter, Erik is forced to avenge her. This time the madness of the Phantom cannot be freely unleashed. Erik must rein himself in for the sake of his genius son and hideously deformed daughter. With few allies as he takes to the streets of Paris in pursuit of Anna and his nemesis, Raoul, one man, The Persian, seeks to help while Christine seeks to keep Erik at large. Forced to turn over his control while spinning out of it, Erik's past as the Phantom of the Opera roars to life before Paris and his unsuspecting children, and only The Persian tries to talk sense to him. But talk is senseless when talking to a madman. Overcome by his history and desperate to keep the past from destroying his life, Erik takes Paris by storm... Two guns. One bullet. And a result that changes everything...
