For twenty-three years, Pastor Emeka Eze has built a sanctuary of hope in the heart of Lagos - a church that feeds thousands, shelters the vulnerable, educates forgotten children, and gives an entire community a reason to believe life can still change.
Then a body is found floating in the Lagos Lagoon.
As a murder investigation tears open a hidden empire of corruption and blood money, Emeka discovers a devastating truth: the foundation beneath everything he built was financed by one of the most feared men in the city.
Now that man is dying. And he wants something in return.
One public statement. One lie from the pulpit. One betrayal disguised as grace.
If Emeka refuses, the hospital closes. The school collapses. Forty thousand lives fracture. If he agrees, he destroys the one thing he has never sold - the truth.
Set against the restless pulse of Lagos, COVENANT is a literary thriller that asks the question every person of conscience must eventually face: when the institution you built begins to demand the sacrifice of the values that built it, what do you protect?
Tense, morally charged, and impossible to forget - for readers of The Constant Gardener, Half of a Yellow Sun, and The Power and the Glory.
