About this listen

Bloomsbury presents Sister Spirit by Efua Traoré, read by Diana Yekinni.

A supernatural thriller, blending African myth, friendship, romance and self-discovery from prize-winning author, Efua Traoré.

Sixteen-year-old adopted Tara has questions – about who she is, where she belongs, why she dreams...

When her nightmares darken, fears swarm like a flock of ravens and she traces her visions to the ancient Olumo Rock in Nigeria. It is a sacred place, full of magic, myth, and where whispers of the past linger.

Travelling from England and enrolling in a boarding school at the foot of Olumo, Tara begins a journey to seek the truth of her roots and the spirits that pursue her.©2024 Efua Traoré (P)2024 Head of Zeus

Critic Reviews

'Sister Spirit kept me turning the pages. A story about identity, culture and African myth. Set against the backdrop of a Nigerian boarding school Sister Spirit is creepy, haunting yet filled with history, loss, hope and love. Tara is brave and passionate as she searches for her identity and I adored Bisi and Lanre. Efua has once again written a brilliant book with the best Nigerian representation.' (Abiola Bello, author of The Very Merry Murder Club)

'Sister Spirit is an intense and addictive supernatural thriller, blending a powerful mystery with a gripping emotional journey of self-discovery and identity. Efua’s writing is an immersive and captivating experience, drawing the reader into this unique and powerful world.' (J.P. Rose, author of The Haunting of Tyrese Walker)

'You are in for an absolute treat! A Nigerian boarding school adventure featuring myth, magic, friendship, romance plus Yoruba magic and history. Truly original and mesmerising YA.' (Lindsay Galvin, author of Call of the Titanic)

'Efua Traoré’s gripping and atmospheric YA debut, Sister Spirit, hits so many sweet spots: convincing historical fiction blended with a gothic mystery, boarding school drama, and a budding romance.' (Ayesha Harruna Attah, author of The Deep Blue Between and Zainab Takes New York)

'A poignant story of family and identity told in Efua Traoré’s incredibly unique voice. Efua manages to somehow write in a way that is both lyrical but also grounded and I was deftly transported into Tara's story, and hooked as she explored the complexities of her past and her identity. A stunning book!' (Alwyn Hamilton, author of Rebel of the Sands)
