A succession of unfortunate events leads Tolani, a bank secretary, to be persuaded by her roommate Rose to consider drug trafficking as a way to make a living. Tolanis subsequent struggle with temptation forces her to reconsider her morality and that of her mother Arikes as she embarks on a turbulent journey of self-discovery. Sefi Atta was awarded the last Noma Award in 2010. She is the winner of the PEN International 2004/5 David T.K. Wong Prize, and won the first Wole Soyinka Prize for Literature in Africa in 2006 for her debut novel Everything Good Will Come.
