Krátky popis
THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER'The two main characters will
captivate you as their paths are destined to cross... you won't be
able to put this one down!'Reese Witherspoon'I was willingly
propelled into a fascinating and exotic world'Daily MailThey 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.Captivating and lushly written, The Night Tiger
explores the rich world of servants and masters, ancient
superstition and modern ambition, sibling rivalry and unexpected
love. Woven through with Chinese folklore and a tantalizing
mystery, this novel is a page-turner of the highest order. 'An
exuberant medley of magic, romance and weirdness'The Times'[A]
highly imaginative and a spellbinding read'Woman's Weekly
