Publisher Description:

A New York Times Editors' Choice - One of the Washington Post's 5 Best Thrillers of the Year

"As dark and twisted and alluring as the night-cloaked streets of nineteenth-century London, and this book is as much a fascinating psychological query as it is a gripping narrative." --Benjamin Percy, author of Red Moon

"A masterpiece of hallucination; [Levine's] narrator is feverish, righteous, intense . . . . The shockers may be born of this century, but this chilling new version is a remarkably good fit with the original horror classic." -- Miami Herald

In this brilliant reimagining of The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, told from the monster's perspective, Hyde makes a hero of a villain.

Summoned to life by strange potions, Hyde knows not when or how long he will have control of "the body." When dormant, he watches Dr. Jekyll from a remove, conscious of this other, high-class life but without influence. As the experiment continues, their mutual existence is threatened, not only by the uncertainties of untested science, but also by a mysterious stalker. Hyde is being taunted--possibly framed. Girls have gone missing; someone has been killed. Who stands watching in the shadows? In the blur of this shared consciousness, can Hyde ever be confident these crimes were not committed by his hand?
