Description
'An exciting first novel, from a huge new talent.' Mo Hayder
Every so often a thriller appears that offers more to the reader than just entertainment. White Crocodile is just that.
When emotionally damaged mine-clearer Tess Hardy travels to Cambodia to find out the truth behind her ex-husband's death, she doesn't know much about the country or its beliefs.
On arrival, she finds that teenage mothers are going missing, while others are being found mutilated and murdered. As local superstitions breed fear, Tess is drawn into a web of lies that stretches from Cambodia to another murder in England, and a violent secret twenty years old.

Kim F, Reviewer
A great debut novel by K T Medina. Tess Hardy receives a worrying phone call from her ex husband followed by the news that he has been killed clearing mines in Cambodia. She decides to go out to the town in Cambodia to investigate although she has never been there before.
She discovers that young mums are going missing and others are being found in terrible states of mutilation and links are found to her ex. There is a dark superstition around her and suggestions that this is linked to England. She is in danger and we are drawn into the story I will definitely look out for more by this author.
Many thanks to Faber and Faber and Net Galley for the chance to read this one.
