Slasher meets satire in this darkly comic novel set in Nigeria about a woman whose younger Sister has a very inconvenient habit of killing her boyfriends.
But when he asks Korede for Ayoola\'s phone number, she must reckon with what her Sister has become and how far she\'s willing to go to protect her..
She dreams of the day when he will realize that she\'s exactly what he needs.
Korede has long been in love with a kind, handsome doctor at the hospital where she works.
Not that she gets any credit.
She knows the best solutions for cleaning blood (bleach, bleach, and more bleach), the best way to move a body (wrap it in sheets like a mummy), and she keeps Ayoola from posting pictures to Instagram when she should be mourning her missing boyfriend.
Korede\'s practicality is the sisters\' saving grace.
And now Ayoola\'s third boyfriend in a row is dead, stabbed through the heart with Ayoola\'s knife.
NOMINATED FOR THE 2019 BOOKER PRIZE WINNER OF THE LA TIMES BOOK PRIZE FOR MYSTERY/THRILLER FINALIST FOR THE 2019 WOMEN\'S PRIZE Korede\'s Sister Ayoola is many things: the favorite child, the beautiful one, possibly sociopathic.
