- Summary:
- "The rise of an abused and forsaken village girl. They named her Tukiya, without realizing the prophetic gist surrounding it. At age 7, a genius and peculiar child, Tukiya sets the whole village 'alight'. Her parents, bow to pressure and form part of the clique tormenting her, in a small village in the North-Western Province of Zambia. She's married off at a tender-age, but Tukiya runs away for the safety of her 'teenage essentials'. Journeying the bushes of Kisanswe village en-route to a safe hub, Tukiya's life changes at the hand of a clique of merciless teenage boys. Years later, Tukiya, in a bid to resolve the conflict, returns to the same village that rejected her and labeled her a sorcerer. How did Tukiya rise amidst a daunting background? Let's find out what happened, and how she conquered it all..."--Page 4 of cover.
