“Michael, I’ve come now because the time is right.” The old man’s voice carried a note of urgency. “I’ve come now because there is great need.”
The sudden appearance of the unexpected stranger, and the story he bears from far-off Siberia, plunges Michael Carter on a life and death quest to save the Siberian tiger. Equipped only with the silver medallion and the Guardians’ three gifts, Michael embarks on a journey that will test his courage to the limit.
As Michael travels through the ancient forests of Siberia, the Guardians’ gifts are revealed, and Michael finds himself drawn deeper into a world of mystery and danger. Together with Tania the ranger’s daughter, and Gypsy the shaggy black dog, Michael must battle the forces determined to destroy the proud and ancient Siberian tigers. But the enemy is strong, and time is running out.
