This is a historical horror/thriller story revolving around Robert Louis Stevenson, the story of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, and Jack the Ripper. It alternates between 1880's London and "present day" California. My favorite parts were in the 1880's where Stevenson creates the story of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hy...

Inside the peculiar case, he discovers a journal, written by the renowned Robert Louis Stevenson, which divulges ominous particul...

The Jekyll Revelation by Robert Masello is a paranormal horror story that carries a curse from 1880's London to present-day California.

I've been reading a lot of Young Adult fiction lately, so it was refreshing to read and adult fiction book that still had my favorite elements, paranormal or fantasy. Masello mixes these elements well with the real world. Einstein and the Others I don't know much about Einstein and his history t...
I didn't choose this book, it chose me. From her place on the crowded supermarket bookshelf Eleanor Ames, with her vampiric complexion and ethereal-blue eyes peered over her shoulder, straight at me and whispered “Buy Me!” “I'm not buying a book Eleanor, I just popped in for some carrots”, I pro...
