"When a humanitarian catastrophe strikes Nigeria, an unforgettable cast of Machiavellian opportunists and quixotic do-gooders swoop in to make the most of the tragedy. This is a stand-out debut novel, a dark comedy, that perfectly captures Naomi Klein's "disaster capitalism," cutthroat office politics, vicious sibling rivalry, and the making of water into a corporate venture. Carole Enahoro shares her time between Canada, Britain, and Nigeria."--Publisher.
