Description

One cheek swab. Nine colours. A nation sorted overnight.


 Britain is obsessed with TrueHue, the DNA test that stamps your Heritage Band on a gold certificate marked Accurate to Nature. Then a software glitch shuffles the country. A magistrate turns Yoruba-adjacent, a Lagos tycoon goes Premium Grade, and the Home Secretary is labelled Insufficient Data.


Lead scientist Ada Whitlock-Eze traces the system back to a box of Victorian paint cards, made by her own ancestor.


A sharp, funny satire on the invention of race. There is no white or black. Only between.


For readers of Americanah, Yellowface and The Sellout.
