Om denne bog

**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
