About this book

Meet the Tiger is the thrilling debut novel that introduced the world to Simon Templar, also known as The Saint—a charismatic rogue and vigilante who would go on to become one of the most enduring figures in crime fiction. Written by Leslie Charteris in 1928, this illustrated edition revives the origin story of a legendary hero with visual flair and timeless excitement. In this first adventure, Simon Templar sets out to uncover and confront a mysterious criminal known only as "The Tiger." With his sharp intellect, daring spirit, and flair for justice, The Saint navigates a world of deceit, danger, and betrayal. Along the way, he encounters the resourceful Patricia Holm, whose presence adds romance, wit, and depth to the fast-paced story. Charteris crafts a gripping narrative full of clever twists, lively dialogue, and action-packed scenes. The novel captures the charm and danger of a hero who operates outside the law but always with a strong sense of justice. The accompanying illustrations bring added intensity and style to the experience, immersing readers in the glamorous and perilous world of early 20th-century crime fiction. Meet the Tiger is a must-read for fans of vintage thrillers, introducing the irresistible charm and boldness of The Saint in his very first case.
