Publisher's Synopsis

As the first girl born to the Nachimada family in over sixty years, the beautiful Devi is the object of adoration of her entire family. Strong-willed and confident, she befriends the shy Devanna, a young boy whose mother has died under tragic circumstances. The two quickly become inseparable, until Devi meets Machu the tiger killer, a hunter of great repute, and a man of much honour and pride. It is this tangled relationship between the three that leads to a devastating tragedy-an event that changes their fates forever and has unforeseen and far-reaching consequences for generations to come.

Tiger Hills  explores the impact our decisions carry and the irreversible courses they can set us on. Told in rich lyrical prose and set against the backdrop of a changing society, it is a sweeping epic about the choices we make in the name of family, nation, and love.

The first ten paperback Penguin books appeared in 1935 costing 6d each (the price of a packet of cigarettes). Since then the Penguin list has developed enormously, but still aims to bring the best writing to the widest possible audience. Penguin Paperbacks now range from Booker Prize-winning contemporary authors, to mass market bestsellers, with successful history, biography and general non-fiction as well.
