The Strange Case Of Dr. Jekyll And Mr. Hyde is one of the most well known books in the English language. Dr. Henry Jekyll, a respected London doctor experiments with a potion, which allows him to transform into the evil Edward Hyde. Initially, Dr. Jekyll enjoys the freedom that Mr. Hyde offers, but when Hyde becomes increasingly violent and uncontrollable, which in time leads to murder, Dr. Jekyll struggles to regain control. Hyde eventually takes over permanently, which seems to be heading to their mutual destruction.

The book is presented as what seems like a detective novel, beginning with a sinister figure of unknown origin, a mysterious act of violence, with hints of blackmail and a secret scandal. In the end, The Strange Case Of Dr. Jekyll And Mr. Hyde is much more than a mystery novel.
