One of the Guardian's novels everyone must read.

This new edition of Stevenson's renowned gothic masterpiece has a specially written introduction by Denise Mina.

In The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, London lawyer Gabriel John Utterson investigates a series of sinister events involving his seemingly respectable friend Dr Henry Jekyll and the dangerous and violent criminal known as Edward Hyde. The shocking revelation about their hidden connection has enthralled generations of readers since the book's first publication in 1886; it is still regarded as one of the most important and influential stories ever written.

A morality tale of good and evil, the book explores the multi-faceted complexities of human nature, duality, and class—themes that continue to fascinate and intrigue us today.

'An important book...written with great economy, tension and wit' Ian Rankin

'An exciting and unexpected read, even for those who think they know the story already' Louise Welsh

About the Author

Robert Louis Stevensonwas born in Edinburgh. The success of Treasure Island (1883) and Kidnapped (1886) established his reputation as a writer of tales of action and adventure. Stevenson's Calvinist upbringing lent him a preoccupation with predestination and a fascination with the presence of evil, themes he explored in The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1886)

Denise Minahas won the CWA Dagger for Best First Crime Novel, the Theakstons Old Peculier Crime Novel of the Year twice, and the MacIlvanney Prize twice. She is the author of the first Darkland Tale, Rizzio (Polygon).
