I'm reading "The Tiger" by John Vaillant. I heard about it on NPR (stupid NPR, always expanding by TBR pile) and thought it sounded interesting.
It's about a poacher (true story) stalked and killed by a Siberian tiger. Clearly it's not just a normal attack, but as I'm not even a third of the way through I'm not sure exactly what that entails. So far it's a very good book, riveting and filled with history and other information about Russia (which I'm not very familiar with).
