*Tintin in the New World* is a 1993 novel by American writer Frederic Tuten. The story follows Tintin, Captain Haddock, and Snowy going to Machu Picchu, Peru to meet with a group of mysterious intellectuals. While visiting, Tintin falls in love with an older debutante named Madame Clavdia Chauchat (after the character in Tomas Mann's *The Magic Mountain).* The author pitched the novel's concept to Tintin creator Georges 'Hergé' Remi before Hergé's death, and received his official approval, making it the first and only Tintin fan fiction to be professionally published.
