Behind every door lies a secret; beneath every staircase, a shadow; within every beautiful voice, perhaps a cry from the depths. The Gaston Leroux Library opens the locked rooms of one of France’s great masters of mystery and melodrama, presenting his books read in full. Enter the opera house, the chamber, the corridor, the crime scene—and listen closely, for the truth is never where it first appears.Public domain
