The Last Tiger

"Sibling duo Julia and Brad Riew took their grandfather’s request to eternalize his love for their grandmother seriously, and they ended up with an incredible novel inspired by their grandparents’ unique love story. Set in a fictionalized version of the Japanese colonial occupation of Korea, each chapter of The Last Tiger begins with a short quote from the Riew siblings’ grandparents about their real experiences. The novel tells the story of a high society Tiger Colony daughter falling in love with one of her family’s servants: a boy who happens to see her one night as she sneaks out to witness a tiger being slayed by the Dragon Empire. Filled with both magic and sobering realities, hardship and tenacity, love and pain, this tale of forbidden love is not one to miss."
