Mbue, Imbolo (author.). Onayemi, Prentice, (narrator.). Edwards, Janina, (narrator.). Graham, Dion, (narrator.). Jackson, JD, (narrator.). Johnson, Allyson, (narrator.). Pitts, Lisa Renee, (narrator.).

Summary: In the African village of Kosawa, people live in fear amidst environmental degradation wrought by a large and powerful American oil company. Pipeline spills have rendered farmlands infertile. Children are dying from drinking toxic water. Promises of clean up and financial reparations to the villagers are made, and ignored. The country's government, led by a corrupt, brazen dictator, exists to serve its own interest. Left with few choices, the people of Kosawa decide to fight the American corporation. Doing so will come at a steep price.
