So pleased for Yepoka Yeebo success in winning the Jhalak Prize against so much incredibly strong competition - but then not many other books offer you a clash between Shirley Temple & a multi-millionaire Ghanaian conman! 'Perfect for fans of Catch Me If You Can' said Publishers Weekly

I donā€™t trust Ghana Police Service with anyone, especially women. The way they treat us daily and their history of mistreating women in custody make them unreliable. We need to put pressure on them to disclose the whereabouts of Felicity Nelson and all those in their custody.
