Contains Active Table of Contents (HTML) and in the end of book include a bonus link to the free audiobook.

Dr. Henry Jekyll, fascinated by the dichotomy of good and evil, no longer wants to inhibit his dark side. He concocts a potion to create the alter ego of Mr. Edward Hyde. With the burden of evil placed on Hyde, Jekyll can now take pleasure in his immoral, nefarious fantasies—free of conscience and guilt. It's when Hyde turns to murder that Jekyll realizes how monstrous his impulses are and how hard they are to suppress.

Exploring the nature of shame, repression, desire, and control, Stevenson's story has so endured that "a Jekyll and Hyde personality" has become part of our lexicon in understanding our own—sometimes involuntary—duality.

The Tourniquet - A Hope That Never Dies is a poetic reckoning with memory, ego, and the quiet revolution of becoming. In a world caught between generational cycles and spiritual awakening, one man presented as Father Labby steps into the chrysalis—ready to dissolve the boundaries of self and transcend the illusions of time and space. 
Through fragmented reflections, strange stories, and a refusal to be understood by the mainstream, this book invites readers into a space beyond language. It is not a manifesto, nor a memoir, but a meditation on merging—on remembering what was forgotten, and gathering what was scattered. 
It is a journey through resistance, remembrance, and the fragile beauty of transformation. 
This is not a book for recognition. It is a book for dissolution. For those who feel the pulse beneath the noise—and dare to follow it.

Mysterious socialite Dorian Gray is at the centre of Sherlock Holmes’ latest investigation in this astonishing, uncanny mash-up of Victorian mystery and horror 
 
1903 
 
Sherlock Holmes and Dr John Watson have tickets to the newly arrived Egyptian Circus. Holmes is puzzled by his brother Mycroft’s cryptic gift but is intrigued enough to attend the next production. 
 
The performers, dressed as wondrous half-animal, half-human gods from Egyptian mythology, display superhuman agility and stunts. But they speak no Arabic, sequester themselves in the stables after each show and take orders from a mysterious ring master who is yet to be seen. And then one of the performers is murdered. 
 
Holmes’s enquires lead him to Montebank Manor, the home of the beautiful and secretive socialite Dorian Gray. As Holmes digs deeper, he learns Gray is hiding much more than his involvement in a murder. It’s a darkly fantastical tale of lies, experimentation, hypnosis and wicked ambition.
