The Tiger at Midnight (Katherine Tegen Books, 2019) is the first novel in a young adult fantasy trilogy by debut author Swati Teerdhala. Inspired by Hindu folklore and mythology and ancient Indian history, the story follows the epic journeys of Esha and Kunal as they navigate star-crossed romance, action-packed battles, and questions of sacrifice and loyalty.
