On the drive from California to move in with her grandmother, Lily mysteriously sees a tiger in the road that no one else notices. She has always known, thanks to her Halmoni’s stories, that tigers can’t be trusted. And when she tells Halmoni what she saw, she learns that when Halmoni was Lily’s age, Halmoni stole something from the tiger. Then the magical tiger appears in her grandmother’s basement with a deal to heal the ailing woman, Lily is willing to do whatever it takes—even if that means trapping the tiger. A beautiful mix of Korean folklore and magic realism.
