The day Fatima forgot her name, Death claimed her as its own. Now called Sankofa, she wanders from town to town, a lone girl with a fox at her side and the power to kill with a single touch.
Once, she was just a child. Then a mysterious object fell from the sky, gifting her an alien power she barely understands. Feared as Death’s adopted daughter, she is hunted, revered, and whispered about in equal measure.
Sankofa searches for the artifact that changed her life, seeking answers in a world that greets her with awe and terror.
In Remote Control, Nebula and Hugo Award–winner Nnedi Okorafor delivers an Afrofuturistic tale of mystery, community, and a girl learning to wield the power that remade her.
