Lyrical, evocative horror from an author fast becoming one of my must-reads.
Stuffed with rich, diverse, and beautifully drawn characters, I think this is actually better than Nuzo's last book, which I enjoyed immensely. It's so nice to read a novel where the characters feel like people and not ciphers or plot devices. The story moves along at a good pace, but never feels rushed, and the ideas in it are original and fascinating.
The star of the show, though, is Nuzo's descriptive flair. She draws you in and spellbinds you until you see the sights, hear the sounds, smell the smells and feel the terror of her cast as they move through the story she weaves.
I genuinely would not hesitate to recommend this to anyone who is even vaguely interested in a good horror story.

Not disappointed
Onoh's work never fails to amaze, terrify and teach me all at the same time. One of my favorite horror authors right now and I look forward to her next body of work.

AWESOME. an atmospheric horror set in an Igbo village. Nuzo Onoh takes us on a journey through the eyes of a Night Diplomat as she scours the otherworlds for the soul of her mother and much more. I was totally hooked from start to finish. can't wait to read more from this amazing author
