## Description

'It reminds me of Where the Crawdads Sing . . . an amazing book' Rhys Stephenson 'You won't be able to put this one down!' Reese Witherspoon They say a tiger that devours too many humans can take the form of a man and walk among us... In 1930s colonial Malaya, a dissolute British doctor receives a surprise gift of an eleven-year-old Chinese houseboy. Sent as a bequest from an old friend, young Ren has a mission: to find his dead master's severed finger and reunite it with his body. Ren has forty-nine days, or else his master's soul will roam the earth forever. Ji Lin, an apprentice dressmaker, moonlights as a dancehall girl to pay her mother's debts. One night, Ji Lin's dance partner leaves her with a gruesome souvenir that leads her on a crooked, dark trail. As time runs out for Ren's mission, a series of unexplained deaths occur amid rumours of tigers who turn into men. In their journey to keep a promise and discover the truth, Ren and Ji Lin's paths will cross in ways they will never forget. *********************** Pre-order Yangsze Choo's spellbinding new novel, The Fox Wife, now! *********************** THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER | REESE BOOK CLUB PICK | BBC BIG JUBILEE BETWEEN THE COVERS READ 'An exuberant medley of magic, romance and weirdness' The Times '[A] highly imaginative and a spellbinding read' Woman's Weekly 'I was willingly propelled into a fascinating and exotic world' Daily Mail Readers love The Night Tiger 'Gripping, enchanting' 5* Reader Review 'Captivating from the very beginning' 5* Reader Review 'Simply beautiful' 5* Reader Review 'Profound' 5* Reader Review 'A real feel-good and warming novel' 5* Reader Review
