The forthcoming debut novel from Femi Kayode, Lightseekers, has picked up some fantastic quotes recently and we are delighted to share them with you:
"The best crime fiction transports and enlightens while also entertaining - and Lightseekers, a compulsive and illuminating debut, does that and more. This is a novel that honours and inverts the tried and true tropes of the amateur PI with a contemporary flair that feels assured and innovative."
Alex Segura
"An important story masterfully told."
Leye Adenle
"A superb novel - so inventive and well done. It's just brilliant."
Harriet Tyce
"Thrillingly good. Femi Kayode takes crime fiction - very literally - to new places. Ian Rankin once said the best way to understand a country is to read its crime fiction. Told from the perspective of a returning expatriate, Lightseekers takes us deep into the rich complexities of contemporary Nigeria."
William Shaw
The book will be published by Bloomsbury Raven in February 2021.
