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.

From the Back Cover
"An extraordinarily imaginative novel with prose that catches in the heart like poetry." Leila Meacham, New York Times bestselling author of Roses
"Set in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Mandanna's TIGER HILLS is lush with descriptions of Coorg in India. It's a novel that is sprawling, epic in scope and exquisitely crafted in details. An absorbing, thoroughly engaging read." Indu Sundaresan, author of The Twentieth Wife and Shadow Princess
"With great skill, Sarita Mandanna inserts the reader into Southern India in the late 1800s and captivates us with her saga of a strong-willed girl making difficult choices that will change her life. From the lushness of mountain, jungle, and coffee plantation landscapes, to the multiple threads of unfulfilled love, I was hooked to the very last page, and was reluctant to have to leave this fascinating world." Lalita Tademy, author of Cane River and Red River
From the Inside Flap
Told in rich, lyrical prose and set against the background of a changing society, TIGER HILLS is a sweeping saga about one woman's determination to live life on her own terms - and a riveting novel about the choices we make in the name of family, nation, and love.
