Tiger Lily of Bangkok

When The Seeds of Revenge Blossom!

Lily was born in a rural Thai village to Chinese-Thai parents who ran the local shop. Her early years were shaped by cultural restraint and quiet affection — until an ‘uncle’ began abusing her at the age of eleven. Too afraid to tell her parents, Lily suffered in silence until a brutal act of self-defence exposed the horror she’d endured. Her father died shortly after, and she used the compensation to escape to Bangkok and enrol at university.

But the past does not vanish so easily. Plagued by trauma, Lily leads a double life. By day, she is a diligent student; by night, she dons the uniform of an innocent schoolgirl to bait and eliminate paedophiles. The police are baffled. The media is in uproar. Fear grips Bangkok.

As she descends deeper into Bangkok’s shadows, a chance encounter with a kind young man offers a glimpse of redemption. Could she abandon her crusade and embrace a normal life — or is revenge all she has left?

Tiger Lily of Bangkok is a chilling psychological thriller set in Thailand’s underbelly. Inspired by the country’s contradictions — restraint and rage, silence and spectacle — it’s a haunting portrait of a woman at war with the monsters of her past… and those still walking free.
