Book one in the Makafui Blay series Cover of The Shadow Market

Featuring investigator Makafui Blay

The Shadow Market

When thirteen-year-old Adwoba, her older sister Efua, and their friend Ali discover a mysterious pen and parchment hidden inside an abandoned bus, they think it is just a bit of fun—words that glow pink and then vanish like magic. But that same afternoon, Efua disappears into a rainstorm and does not come home.

As fear grips the city of Apoma and more children go missing, a secret investigator called Makafui Blay arrives to uncover the truth. With danger at every corner, she must follow the clues—a broken watch, a silver taxi, and the strange pen—before it is too late.

A thrilling story of mystery, courage, and the bond between family and friends. Can the truth be found before the shadows swallow it whole?
