Product Information
The Reese Witherspoon x Hello Sunshine Book Club Pick INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "A sumptuous garden maze of a novel that immerses readers in a complex, vanished world." -- Kirkus (starred review) An utterly transporting novel set in 1930s colonial Malaysia, perfect for fans of Isabel Allende and Min Jin Lee Quick-witted, ambitious Ji Lin is stuck as an apprentice dressmaker, moonlighting as a dancehall girl to help pay off her mother's Mahjong debts. But when one of her dance partners accidentally leaves behind a gruesome souvenir, Ji Lin may finally get the adventure she has been longing for. Eleven-year-old houseboy Ren is also on a mission, racing to fulfill his former master's dying wish: that Ren find the man's finger, lost years ago in an accident, and bury it with his body. Ren has 49 days to do so, or his master's soul will wander the earth forever. As the days tick relentlessly by, a series of unexplained deaths racks the district, along with whispers of men who turn into tigers. Ji Lin and Ren's increasingly dangerous paths crisscross through lush plantations, hospital storage rooms, and ghostly dreamscapes. Yangsze Choo's The Night Tiger pulls us into a world of servants and masters, age-old superstition and modern idealism, sibling rivalry and forbidden love. But anchoring this dazzling, propulsive novel is the intimate coming-of-age of a child and a young woman, each searching for their place in a society that would rather they stay invisible. "A work of incredible beauty... Astoundingly captivating and striking... A transcendent story of courage and connection." -- Booklist (starred review)

[Choo has] captured, in a very atmospheric way, the time period and the superstitions [of colonial Malaysia in the 1930s]. It''s a pretty wonderful book." --Nancy Pearl, NPR''s Morning Edition "Richly complex...Gorgeous...Transport[s] us into a colonial world we more often see from the view of the occupier, in this transcendent tale about twins who share no blood, mythology and superstition, sibling rivalry, loyalty, forbidden love and identity." -- San Francisco Chronicle "A mesmerizing tale of murder, romance, and superstition....So vividly told, you can practically smell the oleander blossoms outside Acton''s house.

A sweeping novel with something for everyone -- and incredible writing." --Refinery29 "A bravura performance." -- Washington Independent Review of Books "A sumptuous garden maze of a novel that immerses readers in a complex, vanished world...Choo weaves her research in with a feather-light touch, and readers will be so caught up in the natural and supernatural intrigue that the serious themes here about colonialism and power dynamics, about gender and class, are absorbed with equal delicacy." -- Kirkus (starred review) "A work of incredible beauty...Astoundingly captivating and striking in its portrayal of love, betrayal, and death, The Night Tiger is a transcendent story of courage and connection." -- Booklist (starred review) "Mythical creatures, conversations with the dead, lucky numbers, Confucian virtues, and forbidden love provide the backdrop to Choo''s superb murder mystery.

For fans of Kate Mosse or Isabel Allende." -- Library Journal "Complex, ambitious...a little bit magical." -- Shelf Awareness "Yangsze Choo''s lush writing will appeal to all kinds of readers." -- HelloGiggles "A lushly detailed novel imbued with folklore, mystery, and romance." -- National Geographic Praise for The Ghost Bride "Sumptuous...Unexpected...So full of longing, the pages practically sigh as you turn each one." --Oprah.com (Book of the Week) "From whodunit to ghost story to coming-of-age to romance, there is enough plot to fill several more novels.
