The Invisible Man
ByPublisher Description
What if no one could see you-and nothing could stop you?
Driven by obsession, gifted physicist Griffin cracks the secret of light and refraction, turning his own body into vaporous stealth. But invisibility proves a curse: hunger, cold, and the panic of isolation drive him to violence. As the countryside reels from unseen attacks, former colleague Dr. Kemp must choose between friendship and stopping a monster.
