About the book
"In the vast wilderness of Tasmania's plateau, the mythical Tasmanian tiger, the thylacine, long thought extinct, has been spotted, drawing the dubious interests of outsiders. One such is M. He is a consummate professional; a highly controlled operative hired to hunt down the thylacine by a shadowy biotechnology corporation."--Jacket.
