When the sacred Fontomfrom drum vanishes from the Ashanti palace just days before a royal procession, panic sweeps the kingdom. Without its thunderous voice, the king cannot be proclaimed, and whispers of betrayal spread like wildfire.
Afia refuses to let silence win. With her reluctant but loyal friend Yaw and fearless Ama at her side, she follows a trail of broken wheels, oil stains, and whispered lies into the deep forest. What begins as a search for a stolen drum becomes a race against smugglers, traitors, and time itself.
Captured, outnumbered, and nearly outwitted, Afia must summon all her courage, and Yaw's clumsy heroics to restore the kingdom's heartbeat before the drums of war begin to sound.
Packed with suspense, laughter, and Ghanaian heritage, Afia's fourth adventure raises the stakes higher than ever. Perfect for readers aged 9-12 who love fearless girl detectives, cultural mysteries, and epic twists.
