He told them that the little copse in Elmet was theirs alone. But that wasn't true. Local men, greedy and watchful, began to circle like vultures. All the while, the terrible violence in Daddy grew.

Brutal and beautiful in equal measure, Elmet is a compelling portrayal of a family living on the fringes of contemporary society, as well as a gripping exploration of the disturbing actions people are capable of when pushed to their limits.

“Captivating & lushly written, The Night Tiger explores the rich world of servants & masters, ancient superstition & modern ambition, sibling rivalry and unexpected love. Woven through with Chinese folklore & a tantalizing mystery, this is a page-turner of the highest order.”

This sounds really interesting (read the full synopsis elsewhere!), and very different to the previous book. I’m looking forward to it!
