One night, Ji Lin’s dance partner leaves her with a gruesome souvenir: a severed finger. Secretly, though, Ji Lin also moonlights as a dancehall girl to help pay off her beloved mother’s Mahjong debts. Ji Lin always wanted to be a doctor, but as a girl in 1930s Malaysia, apprentice dressmaker is a more suitable occupation. Ren has 49 days, or else his master’s soul will roam the earth, unable to rest in peace. When 11-year-old Ren’s master dies, he makes one last request of his Chinese houseboy: that Ren find his severed finger, lost years ago in an accident, and reunite it with his body. Full of Chinese and Malaysian folklore, The Night Tiger will take you on a journey about family, dreams, and promises. I have had The Night Tiger on my TBR for a while now and I saw it as an audio book and jumped to pick it up! The Night Tiger is a book full of magic and that hint of something brewing under the surface.
