**From the author of the 2023 Baillie Gifford Prize for Non-Fiction winning Fire Weather** 'An unbelievable tale, expertly told' Patrick Radden Keefe, author of Empire of Pain 'A superb book ' Daily Mail · 'Masterful . . . mesmerising, rangy and relentless' Sunday Telegraph A man-eating tiger is hunting villagers in the snowy forests of Far Eastern Russia. A small team of men and their dogs must hunt the tiger in turn. As evidence mounts, it becomes clear that the tiger's attacks aren't random: it is seeking revenge. Injured, starving and extremely dangerous, the tiger must be found before it strikes again. As he tracks the tiger's deadly progress, John Vaillant draws an unforgettable portrait of a distant and brutal region, over 5,000 miles from Moscow. In the harsh depths of winter in Primorye, a gripping tale of man and nature unfolds. 'Exciting, memorable - and perfectly, impeccably right . . . a tale of astonishing power and vigour' Simon Winchester, author of The Surgeon of Crowthorne 'Extraordinary . . . a brilliantly told tale of man and nature' New York Review of Books
