    The Acclaimed Psychological Thriller - Goodreads 4.4 Stars. Amazon 4.4 Stars 
      
    Tyger: A Story of Survival in the Jungle" by Michael James is a thriller that takes you dives deep into the heart of the jungle, where every decision can mean life or death. 
     Five friends, returning from a climb in the Himalayas, are trapped in cabin by a 400 pound Bengal tiger.  The choices the characters are forced to make under pressure, ratchets up the tension to nail-biting levels. Every choice, from deciding their travel routes to handling encounters with the tiger, feels weighty and fraught with potential danger. 
     What makes "Tyger" stand out is not just the external struggle for survival, but the internal conflicts that arise. As the characters navigate the treacherous jungle, their decisions often reflect their deepest fears and values, adding a psychological depth to the physical challenges they face. The overall pacing successfully builds suspense as readers are left wondering what consequences the characters will face next. 
     By turns dramatic and poetic, tender and terrifying, TYGER takes us on an unforgettable trek. The author skillfully forces us to confront our most basic fears, see how our beliefs dictate our choices, and question what we owe to both our fellow humans and the endangered, yet murderously dangerous, Tiger.
