Four women spark a revolution on a Caribbean island - the electrifying new novel from the Costa-winning author of The Mermaid of Black Conch. 'Vital, enraging and brilliant. I loved it' SARAH WINMAN 'Beautiful and important' SAFIYA SINCLAIR Early one morning, at the close of St Colibri's carnival, a young female steel-pan player is found dead beneath a cannonball tree. It is a discovery that will transform the lives of everyone on this small island. As the days pass, this shocking event draws together four women. There's Sharleen, a journalist with an eye for the real story. Her childhood friend Tara, a pink-haired, straight-talking local activist. Gigi, the 'notorious' founder of the Port Isabella Sex Workers Collective. And Daisy, first lady of St Colibri, who is haunted by a disappearance in her own family decades ago. In a community in which women's voices are often silenced and violence against them is overlooked time after time, the group soon find themselves compelled to speak out - and to act. But even they could never have foreseen the consequences of their courage... 'Roffey's world-building power is evident on every page' GUARDIAN 'Will keep you reading all hours... unforgettable' GLAMOUR 'Sensual, ferocious... If The White Lotus were a modern feminist thriller, this would be it' LALINE PAULL 'The spirit of carnival itself is in the writing... Electrifying' JASON ALLEN-PAISANT 'A vital novel... Fiery, funny' DIANA EVANS READERS LOVE PASSIONTIDE 'This was fantastic... five stars' 'Exhilarating... it's a blast, with sharp, smart humour' 'A powerful book... really moving' 'Filled with anger, unity and love' 'What an amazing book this is...
