From the BAFTA award winning creator of BBC 3's JUST ACT NORMAL, comes a gripping and atmospheric debut thriller set in Nigeria

'Exceptional' Harriet Tyce

There were always rumours about that girl, even before she disappeared.

People had always feared the housekeeper’s daughter, Frieda – the girl with abnormally light eyes, who seemed to know things she shouldn’t. Olori paid these superstitions no mind, refusing to admit her daughter was anything but normal.

But then Frieda disappeared, and everything changed.

Olori pleads with her employers for help, but the wealthy Buzugbes are more concerned with their reputation. And then the rumours start – rumours of other missing girls, rumours about Frieda, and rumours about her employers and what they might be capable of.

An atmospheric and suspenseful mystery perfect for fans of Oyinkan Braithwaite and Jane Harper

批評家のレビュー

'I thought it was exceptional. I’m already a fan of what one might call Nigerian noir from the work of Femi Kayode and this has reinforced that further. It’s really well-written, intricately plotted and strongly characterised with just the right amount of immersive description to add atmosphere without detracting from the tension of the action. I’m looking forward to meeting Sola again in what I hope will be a long-running series'
Harriet Tyce, Sunday Times bestselling author of Witch Trial
'I flew through the pages of Girl Number 8. Janice Okoh's incredibly atmospheric and big-hearted debut balanced dread and hope and a large cast of characters with elegance and urgency. A gem of a novel!'
Rachel Howzell Hall, NYT Bestselling Author of Mist and Malice and The Last One
'Janice Okoh’s rich and evocative storytelling had me hooked from the first page. A riveting debut!'
Foluso Agbaje, author of The Talk of the Party
'GIRL NUMBER 8 a pacy, rich plot, dense in sensual local detail with Okoh exploiting her vibrant visual storyteller palette to the full. A police procedural with a difference, it is a vivid portrayal of a mother’s worst nightmare as her child is abducted set in an electro-bright, dangerously complicated Nigeria, leaving Detective Sola with a challenging case to solve. The detail is intricate, with ‘palm oil suns’, a weaving of food and visual intensity in everything. The whole novel is as luxurious and nuanced as Nigerian food, an important development of the police procedural genre and a terrific thriller to boot.'
Nina Bhadreshwar, author of The Burnt Moor
