She is also on tap as a consultant to the government's Psi Disease Centers, where her ability to shape-shift into a tiger is as valuable as her academic credentials.

- Tigresse Lily de Bangkok se retrouve à Londres: Tiger Lily, #2

Tigresse Lily de Bangkok se retrouve à Londres La tigresse refait surface à nouveau Après l’effet dévastateur que la fureur qu’elle a déchaînée et a eu sur sa propre vie et les citoyens de Bangkok dans ses premiers jours en tant qu’étudiante en médecine, la vie de Lily s’apaise quelque peu et elle se met consciencieusement aux études. Deux ans plus tard, elle gagne une bourse pour travailler à l’hôpital pour enfants de la grande rue Ormond à Londres. Elle s’y rend donc sans Ron qui continue ses études à Bangkok. Le livre « Tigresse Lily de Bangkok se retrouve à Londres » reprend l’histoire de Lily durant la deuxième de ses deux années d’étude en tant qu’étudiante en médecine à l’hôpital. Elle aime beaucoup son travail et s’entends bien avec le personnel médical et infirmier ainsi que les jeunes patients. Toutefois, Lily n’a pas d’amis en dehors de son travail. Lors d’un de ses jours de congé, elle lit un article dans le « Sunday Times » sur les réseaux organisés de pédophiles à Londres qui impliquent le gouvernement du pays lui-même. Cette situation rend Lily absolument furieuse. Elle peut soit l’ignorer ou soit s’impliquer. Sa première réaction est d’éviter le démon qui l’avait possédée à Bangkok seulement quelques années plus tôt. Toutefois, lorsqu’elle rencontre d’autres jeunes victimes d’abus sexuels, le dé semble jeté. Cette histoire n’est pas pour les personnes sensibles et elle ne raconte pas les actes d’abus sexuels posés sur les jeunes. Le livre, cependant, fait souvent référence à des endroits notoires d’abus, notamment le « Meat Rack » (étalage de viande ou de jeunes à louer) sur le « Piccadilly Circus » au centre de Londres. Beaucoup de questions sont soulevées et sont toujours sous enquête par la police au moment de la rédaction de ce livre. Mais peu de personnes s’attendent à voir de résultats de ces enquêtes. Nos soi-disant dirigeants nous font honte parce qu’ils préfèrent protéger les puissants agresseurs plutôt que les jeunes abusés impuissants devant eux.

Owen Jones
Author Owen Jones, from Barry, South Wales, came to writing novels relatively recently, although he has been writing all his adult life. He has lived and worked in several countries and travelled in many, many more. He speaks, or has spoken, seven languages fluently and is currently learning Thai, since he lived in Thailand with his Thai wife of ten years. "It has never taken me long to learn a language," he says, "but Thai bears no relationship to any other language I have ever studied before." When asked about his style of writing, he said, "I'm a Celt, and we are Romantic. I believe in reincarnation and lots more besides in that vein. Those beliefs, like 'Do unto another...', and 'What goes round comes around', Fate and Karma are central to my life, so they are reflected in my work'. His first novel, 'Daddy's Hobby' from the series 'Behind The Smile: The Story of Lek, a Bar Girl in Pattaya' has become the classic novel on Pattaya bar girls and has been followed by six sequels. However, his largest collection is 'The Megan Series', twenty-three novelettes on the psychic development of a young teenage girl, the subtitle of which, 'A Spirit Guide, A Ghost Tiger and One Scary Mother!' sums them up nicely. After fifteen years of travelling, Owen and his wife are now back in his home town. He sums up his style as: "I write about what I see... or think I see... or dream... and in the end, it's all the same really..."
