Adunni and Ms Tia are back, now forced to confront their pasts and find the courage to roar for themselves

”Fresh, funny and fiercely feminist, Dare’s empowering sequel to The Girl With The Louding Voice is a gut punch of a book’ MAIL ON SUNDAY

Plucky fourteen-year-old Adunni is in Lagos, excited to finally enrol in school. Having escaped her rural village in a desperate bid to seek a better future, she’s found refuge with Tia, a kind and brilliant woman on her own troubled journey of self-discovery.

But it’s not so simple to run away from your past. On the night before she is due to join her new classmates for her first lesson, a terrible knocking at the front gate summons Adunni back to her home village, Ikati, where her dramatic story of resilience first began. As Tia frantically tries to protect her from an uncertain fate, Adunni must try to save not only herself but all the young women of her village, and transform Ikati into a place where girls are allowed to claim the bright futures they deserve – and roar their stories to the world.
