Description
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.
