The Pale Tiger — Mike Harrison

WHAT IS 'THE PALE TIGER'? A myth? An almost-forgotten sheet of A4 gathering dust in the vaults beneath Beijing? Or a ruthlessly audacious plan to wreak deadly revenge on America with breath-taking historical symmetry? From the steaming jungles of Hong Kong to the hard-edged clamour of New York and the Autumn chill of the grey streets of London, 'The Pale Tiger' is a piece of contemporary fiction that shines the spotlight on some of the existential challenges facing the world today. A full-throated thriller, pitching our characters into the dark heart of that toxic nexus where power and money warp the best of intentions and fan the worst of them.
