READING: Sinister Symphony - Whispers of Scandals, Book 1

Join us for the premiere reading of Marina Neumeier on 12.09.2026 at Hugendubel bookstore in Erding!

In the opening book of the "Whispers of Scandals" series, a forbidden love unfolds between two opera stars whose families have been torn apart by a destructive secret for years. Against the glamorous backdrop of international opera houses, an emotionally charged rivals-to-lovers and slow-burn romance unfolds, full of tension, deep feelings, and dangerous truths.

About the book:
He has the voice of an angel. Only she knows his dark side.
Icaro Palladino, son of the greatest opera singer of all time and himself the celebrated darling of the opera world, is Aria's personal nemesis. She is convinced his father sent hers to prison. But when she receives an offer for a joint European tour, she must strike a deal with the devil. Although Aria has been singing under an assumed name since the scandal surrounding her father, Icaro recognizes her immediately. His Giuletta. After hatred between their families kept them apart for fifteen years, a liaison ignites between them fueled by something far more than enmity. And it could bring to light truths that are hidden for good reason.
The Phantom of the Opera meets Romeo and Juliet meets Succession, when Icaro Palladino and Aria Shaw meet.
