A scorching, euphoric YA novel about sisterhood, trauma and the fighting spirit of women, from Zimbabwean author, Blessing Musariri.
When her mama drops a bombshell, Chiante's world shatters. In Zimbabwe, bloodlines matter, so when Chiante discovers her baba is not the man she thought he was, she flees. Seeking refuge in a secluded corner of Mutare with her feisty, stylish grandmother, Ambuya Precious, Chiante finds solace in a sisterhood forged by the bonds of war. This close-knit community of women and ex-combatants are living their best lives: singing, dancing, drinking and running a successful fashion-upcycling business. But at the heart of their carefully-built world is a secret no-one can give voice to which threatens to engulf them.
As Chiante pieces together the puzzle of her family’s past, she wrestles with how sorrow seeps down the generations, and how hope survives all, obliging us to step up and live life to the full.
