'A cinematic novel of empire, colonialism and romance' GUARDIAN

WONDER
Under orders from the ruler of Mysore, young toymaker Abbas has created a spectacular mechanical tiger, unlike anything the world has ever seen.

LOVE
Abbas' achievement opens up the opportunity of a new life, but most importantly it leads him to Jehanne, a determined young woman with ambitions of her own.

WAR
When British soldiers ransack the city in April 1799, Abbas's precious creation is looted, lost to the Empire. Now he and Jehane must embark on an extraordinary quest across the seas to Europe, to reclaim his legacy.
