' Emelumadu has revealed surprising layers of our world and given me the eyes to see them.' TRACEY CHEVALIER

Treasure and her mother lost everything when Treasure's daddy died. Haggling for scraps in the market, Treasure meets a spirit who promises to bring her father back - but she has to complete a dark task for him first.

Ozoemena has an itch in the middle of her back that can't be scratched. An itch that speaks to her great and terrible destiny, secretly passed down through generations, to defend her people by becoming a leopard. Her father impressed upon her what an honour this was before he vanished, but it's one she couldn't want less.

But as the two girls reckon with their burgeoning wildness and the legacy of their fathers' decisions, Ozoemena's fellow students at her new boarding school start to vanish. Treasure and Ozoemena will face frightening choices as they are drawn into battle with sinister forces - and it's a fight they can't both survive.

'A feast of shimmering, beautiful prose' CHIKA UNIGWE
