About the author

Gaston Leroux

1868–1927

Best known for creating The Phantom of the Opera, this French writer brought together suspense, mystery, and gothic atmosphere in stories that still feel vivid today. He also helped shape detective fiction with clever, fast-moving novels like The Mystery of the Yellow Room.
