THE DRAGON BEHIND THE GLASS: A True Story of Power, Obsession, and The World’s Most Coveted Fish is Voigt’s enthralling account of her immersion into a bizarre world of obsession, a years-long adventure that took her around the globe, from Singapore’s Aquarama—the Westminster Dog Show of ornamental fish—to some of the last remaining tropical wilderness on the planet.
