Overview

Evocative and transportive, filled with nuance and spiked with the violence of war, Darkness Calls the Tiger is a story of redemption in the midst of hopelessness.”
–Tosca Lee, New York Times best-selling author

After the attack on Pearl Harbor, Imperial Japan devours the southern portion of Burma, intent on taking over mainland Asia. Unaware of the coming darkness, Kailyn Moran drifts in her role as the only daughter of a widowed missionary.

As whispers of war snake through the Kachin mountains, Kai’s father is convinced God will protect the mission. He entrusts the village to her and the kind yet inexperienced new missionary, Ryan McDonough, while he makes routine visits to neighboring villages.

War descends like a tempest upon the mountain peaks, and an unbreakable bond forms between Kailyn and Ryan as they unite to provide solace to both villagers and the flood of refugees. Despite their tireless efforts, a brutal enemy shatters almost everything they love, pushing Kailyn to embark on a path of unrestrained vengeance.

Afraid he’s losing the woman he loves, Ryan fights to protect Kai from the deadly consequences of her choices. But in the face of destruction, can he convince her of the power and freedom of forgiveness?

Review

Kai is a daughter of a missionary. She killed a tiger when she was very young so she has a stigma that follows her. Kai’s father just knows the Lord will protect the village from Japanese invaders. But, this is not the case. Kai does everything she can but it is enough?!?

What a fabulous character is Kai! She just goes through so much in her young life. But, she never gives up. Did she possibly make some bad choices, yes, but there were reasons. I cannot imagine going through what this girl goes through in this novel and survive.

This is a unique tale set in Burma during WWII. I had no idea about what happened on this side of the world during this time period. So, to say I learned a lot is an understatement! This author did amazing research and some wonderful writing to bring this story to life!

Need a different tale about WWII…THIS IS IT! Grab your copy today.

I received this novel for a honest review.
