A spellbinding thriller from the bestselling author of The Einstein Prophecy.

A chilling curse is transported from 1880s London to present-day California, awakening a long-dormant fiend.

While on routine patrol in the tinder-dry Topanga Canyon, environmental scientist Rafael Salazar expects to find animal poachers, not a dilapidated antique steamer trunk. Inside the peculiar case, he discovers a journal, written by the renowned Robert Louis Stevenson, which divulges ominous particulars about his creation of The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. It also promises to reveal a terrible secret - the identity of Jack the Ripper.

Unfortunately, the journal - whose macabre tale unfolds in an alternating narrative with Rafe's - isn't the only relic in the trunk, and Rafe isn't the only one to purloin a souvenir. A mysterious flask containing the last drops of the grisly potion that inspired Jekyll and Hyde and spawned London's most infamous killer has gone missing. And it has definitely fallen into the wrong hands.

I picked up this book and could hardly put it down. The author does a fantastic job switching between mid 1800's language and modern American English. The intertwined stories and developing mystery make for an exciting, fast-paced read. I couldn't recommend this book enough for people who enjoy mystery, historical fiction, and fantasy.

If you're the kind of person, like me, who's very attuned to spoken language, you may find the narration a bit irksome. Mr. Lane tries to read all of Stevenson's words in a Scottish accent. Unfortunately, he misses the mark many times, making the renowned author sound like he's originally from India instead of Scotland. Lane does an excellent job of narration otherwise. So, this may be a minor point for most audible readers.

I'm very much looking forward to reading more books by Robert Masello. I hope you enjoy this story as much as have.

Excellent Book, Narration Just a Bit Off

This story mixes fact with fiction and, at times, I found it difficult to separate the two (definitely increased the entertainment value). I also enjoyed learning about Robert Louis Stevenson, and his potential link to “Jack the Ripper”. Who knew?

The book also has a link to the present and follows the lives of people I might meet. Their story was also interesting and I found myself hoping they could rid themselves of the villains we meet in everyday life.

Entertaining and Educational

Loved this book. The narrator gave an outstanding performance. used his voice very well to reflect the differences in characters. I was able to envision each character by the change in voice used to create various characters. The story line was well written. I am normally able to guess the ending with most books, not this one though. I truly recommend this if you enjoy mystery, fiction, history and fantasy all mixed together.

Enjoyable story

I enjoyed the book a nice twist on a story that has been told many times.

It's not stunning. The accents and inflections are overdone at times by the narrator. And a few details are out of the writer's realm of knowledge. Saying that though I did experience periods of emotion that were directly related to character action. So the writing is good. Not worth full price though.

I am iffy on this one...

The concept of the story is great but it was a little slow and a little boring at times. I much preferred the Medusa Amulet and the Romanov Cross to this one. I really enjoy Masello’s work but this wasn’t one of my favorites.

Intriguing but a little slow

New twist on a old story, loved it! This made the story have a new perspective.

Great twist!

This story could've been a third in it's total length. The only real highlight is the diary. The rest of what went on could have been omitted and that would not have changed the quality overall.

Unfortunately a disappointment
