Bookroo's summary

Dr. Jekyll, a respected physician, creates a potion that unleashes his sinister alter ego, Mr. Hyde. As Hyde's malevolent actions spiral out of control, Jekyll struggles to contain the chaos within. Can he reclaim his humanity, or will his darker side prevail? This gripping tale explores the duality of human nature and the perilous pursuit of forbidden knowledge.

From the publisher

A single person–but with two personalities: one that’s noble and kind and another that’s pure, repulsive evil. Robert Louis Stevenson’s engrossing masterpiece about the dual nature of man–and a good doctor whose thirst for knowledge has tragic consequences–serves up all the suspense and satisfying chills one expects from the best horror and science fiction.
