Isda is a gravoirs, a magical being who can use magic to manipulate memories by pulling their elixir of life. If a gravoirs pulls too much elixir, the person will die. She was rescued by Cyril Bardin when she was just a few minutes old. Many of her kind are killed as children because they are so dangerous. Cyril has raised her in an opera house and taught her how to play the piano and sing. One evening, she hears a young man, Emeric, singing and goes to investigate. This one small act will have huge consequences for not only the two of them but for the entire city.
The story has a steady pace, the characters are developed, and it is written in the first-person point of view. This is a feminist twist of phantom of the opera theme. Isda is disfigured and wears a mask to hide her face. She lives in secret as a ghost known to haunt the opera house. I really liked the two main characters, Isda and Emeric. They are willing to sacrifice everything for each other. If you enjoy young adult fantasy stories, you will like this book.
