Gabriel Utterson is a mild-mannered, quiet and unassuming lawyer who contents himself with observing the foibles and triumphs of others, rather than diving into life himself.

That is until one day he is told a horrifying and brutal tale of a crime that took place in broad daylight. Utterson becomes obsessed by the spectral figure at the centre of the story, Mr Edward Hyde, and determined to uncover the links between him and Utterson’s own friend: the upstanding Doctor Henry Jekyll.

What ensues is a spiralling descent into the seamy underbelly of Victorian London and the secret life of a man who presents a respectable visage to the world whilst living a shadowier existence under the cloak of night.

In a race to save his friend from danger, Utterson will come face to face with the shocking truth.
