About this book

A family curse, a drowned aunt, and a girl who may be her second chance.

The women of the Falodun family in Lagos have lived for generations under a curse: no man will ever stay with them. When Monife Falodun loses the man she loves and drowns herself, the family is sure the curse has struck again.

Her niece Eniiyi is born on the day of Monife's funeral and grows up looking so much like her aunt that the family believe she is Monife come back. Years later, Eniiyi pulls a young man out of the sea, and the bond that follows begins to reveal secrets from Monife's past.

Cursed Daughters is Oyinkan Braithwaite's second novel, after the international bestseller My Sister, the Serial Killer. Darkly funny and full of heart, it is a story about mothers, daughters and sisters, and about how much of our fate we inherit.
