Synopsis

Forensic science, magic, mystery and romance mix in this steampunk retelling of Robert Louis Stevenson's Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. Dr Eliza Jekyll, daughter of the infamous Dr Henry Jekyll, is a crime scene investigator in an alternate, electric-powered Victorian London, and she is pursuing a dangerous murderer.

Her inheritance is more than a name: Eliza shares her life with Lizzie Hyde, a wilder alter ego who moves freely through the dark, dank and dangerous parts of the city that Eliza cannot enter.

The Diabolical Miss Hyde is the first book of Viola Carr's Electric Empire trilogy, continued in The Devious Dr. Jekyll and The Dastardly Miss Lizzie.
