A Modern Mephistopheles - Louisa May Alcottová

\'A Modern Mephistopheles\' is an eerie tale of passion, deceit, control and greed. It is little wonder Alcott\'s authorship of the novel was unknown for many years, as she sheltered behind a pseudonym. Felix Canaris, an anguished writer who is about to take his own life, is saved by Jasper Helwyze offering grand promises of fame and fortune - but on the condition that he promises his complete commitment. But when Helwyze exploits the naïve and graceful Gladys as a pawn in his scheme - the race is on, will Canaris break free of him in time to save Gladys? A 150 year-old spine-chilling tale that has never been more relevant today.
