Publisher's summary

Victorian London is a difficult place to be when you are gay, as Henry and Gabriel know all too well.

When they were young, at Oxford University, Henry and Gabriel’s love burned hot and bright, and they thought to change the world together until a devastating tragedy ripped them apart.

Now, as youth fades away, Henry can no longer stand to see his own reflection in the mirror. All he sees is a sad, tired old man whose body has betrayed him. He craves the touch of another, to feel attractive and vital once more but his obsession with finding a cure for insanity has stolen his life away, and now, his work has taken on a dark and sinister dimension. How far will he go to recapture the passion of his lost youth?

Gabriel fears that Henry is losing his mind, and when a brutal killer invades their lives, they are thrust into the dark depths of Victorian London in a fight for their very lives.

As their friendship is tested to its limits, Gabriel cannot help but wonder if there is still a chance for love. Can they move beyond the friendship that has spanned over 30 years and find the love that once made their hearts beat as one?

You may never be too old to find love, but will you be able to survive it?

Interesting Take on a Favorite Classic tale

Wow, this book made an impression and I am still processing my emotions and feelings inspired by this story. This is sort of re-telling of a famous classic and one of my favorites because I always enjoyed exploration of two sides to every person, the dark scary face they hyde and the nice socially acceptable face they show to the world. In this book Doctor Jekyll shaken by great injustice done to his family and inability to be open with his love choices creates a monster. I enjoyed this book very much, parts of it were unexpected and stunning, other parts beautiful and sad, and so worth it. Narrator did a great job with all the character voices and the story, although his voice took a bit getting used to. This was my first book by the author and narrator and I am looking forward to more books by them.

Thrilling story!

Oh, wow! It took me a second to get into the story, but once I did? I couldn’t stop listening! It’s very compelling and engaging, with multiple POVs and flash-backs.
Very well-written and performed!

as good as the ebook

The story is always 4 or 5 stars, because if I wouldn't like the story as ebook, I wouldn't listen to the audiobook.

The performance from the narrator is also very important for me. I can't listen to a lot, because my English as a non-native-speaker isn't so perfect to follow a whole story over hours, when the narrator speaks too fast or too sloppy. Normally I have to SEE the person, who is talking to me in English. It took me a little bit, to come into the narrator, but at the end, it worked. I only have to take a few breaks between. I'm just not yet finish with the book, but I listen enough to give a review.

PLEASE READ MY RATING SYSTEM!!!

To my ratings:

5* - very very good
it's like an A+

4* - very good and will be often re-listening
it's like an A

3* - it's more then a one-time-listening, but not more then twice a year.
it's like a B
