{"product_id":"books-the-lastling-by-philip-gross","title":"The Lastling","description":"Paris is on a trek in the Himalayas with her uncle and her uncle's friends. On the way they come across a young Tibetan monk, Tahr, who reluctantly joins their party as his protector has died in an accident. As the trek progresses, Paris realizes the true reason for the journey - her uncle and his friends are a strange, gourmet dining club, dedicated to hunting down and eating the rarest possible animals. So when they discover a young yeti-like creature, who is very nearly human herself, Tahr convinces Paris that they have a duty to protect her, come what may. Philip Gross is a well-known poet for both adults and children, and has been shortlisted for the Whitbread Poetry Award.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53507410886929,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780192719423.jpg?v=1778126294","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/products\/books-the-lastling-by-philip-gross","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
