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

‘A propulsive and atmospheric debut’ KARIN SLAUGHTER

'Exceptional' HARRIET TYCE

'A crime debut of the year' JANICE HALLETT

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

‘Girl Number 8 is a propulsive and atmospheric debut thriller from a talented storyteller’
#1 Sunday Times and International Bestselling Author, Karin Slaughter
‘Girl Number 8 is a super-taut, high-stakes read that transports the reader effortlessly to the heart of rural Nigeria. With its five-star plot full of complex characters, each so distinct I feel I know them, the story had me in its clutches from page one. If this isn’t hailed as a crime debut of the year, I’ll be very surprised. Okoh is a clear new voice in fiction, most definitely one to watch’
Janice Hallett, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Silent Appeal
'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
'[An] elegant debut…Okoh deserves praise for her ambition and the novel’s exciting climax…an auspicious first effort'
