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

Robert Louis Stevenson was an atheist and free spirit. In Samoa – where he died – he fought in a civil war for independence. In 1886, the blockbuster novel Kidnapped was published – a dramatic adventure of abduction and life on the run in the wilds of Scotland. Stevenson died in 1894, just 44 years old. The Samoan natives, who were devoted to Stevenson, cut a track through the jungle to create a resting place for him on top of the mountain above his beloved Vailima estate.
Denise Mina was born in East Kilbride in 1966. Her first book, Garnethill, won the CWA Dagger for Best First Crime Novel. She has won the Theakstons Old Peculier Crime Novel of the Year twice, and the MacIlvanney Prize twice. She is a presenter of TV and radio programmes, and appears regularly in the media.
