Titled Dream Count, the novel is scheduled for release on 3 March 2025. This highly anticipated new work will be published in the UK and the Commonwealth by 4th Estate, and in the US and Canada by Knopf.

I am deeply excited about this book. I am so proud to have finished it. I cannot wait for my wonderful fans to read it.”
Omelogor, Chiamaka’s bold, outspoken cousin, is a financial powerhouse in Nigeria who begins to question how well she knows herself.

This latest masterpiece from the award-winning author promises to take readers on a reflective journey, exploring existential questions that resonate with us all.
