Spirit Tiger
“He lay forlorn in a stand of rubber trees off the main road between Tumpat and Pengkalan Kubur, across the river and north of Kota Bharu, almost to the border with Thailand. How he got there was anyone’s guess; certainly no one was looking for him there, so far from his home, and it was only by chance that a man tapping rubber happened to notice an unfamiliar heap through the trees.

He was pale, almost translucent, and all his blood had leaked into the dark ground around him, leaving little trace of where it had once been. Ruslan’s throat had been torn out, leaving a gaping hole in his neck and shoulder where the blood had poured from him, and the expression on his face would give the man who found him nightmares for the rest of his life.MoreLess
