This novel is primarily about relationships rather than murder so don't dismiss it if you're not into true crime (like I almost did). It's a quick but impactful read and an excellent palate cleanser to cure a reading slump.
The story centers around Korede and Ayoola, two young single sisters living in present-day Lagos, Nigeria. Secondary characters are the people in their lives - family members, coworkers, and Ayoola's boyfriends. Oh those boyfriends ...
Very short chapters and a fresh writing style help the story move along quickly - I wanted to read "just one more chapter" to see what happens next. I'm eager to read Oyinkan Braithwaite's next creation.
