When her certainties crumbled, she found a fierce new truth far from home.

After a shattering betrayal tore through her faith and identity, writer Lauren Cibene clung to the fragments of a life once totally defined by evangelicalism. In the wake of her betrayal, she wrestled with anxiety, borderline agoraphobia, and depression while her faith community tried to rush through her grief. Thats when Cibene spontaneously abandoned the familiar for the unpredictable: India.

As she journies through the riot of Kolkata, the markets of Jaipur, the sacred ghats of Varanasi, and more, she confronts the ghosts of her past, the wounds of her present, and the specter of her future. Every encounter-fumbling with a sari in a dim rest stop bathroom, staring into the flames of funeral pyres, holding the hands of people living with leprosy-puts her one step closer to reclaiming her trust in humanity, the Divine, and herself.

Like Pi in Life of Pi, she finds an unlikely survival companion-her own fierce, resilient spirit, a tigress waiting to be unleashed. Tiger in a Lifeboat is an intimate, immersive, and honest testament to travels transformative power, the reclaiming of self-trust in a world that often strips it away, and the slow, ultimately beautiful journey back to oneself.
