Fola was a puzzling contradiction. The confident, successful CEO of a chain of stores in the Nigerian capital; the person feted at social events, renowned for her generosity and philanthropy; yet a bitter, sad and exhausted woman beset with anxiety, ill-health and low self-esteem that left her numb and confused.
Struggling to make sense of it all, Fola began to realise the depth of her trauma, trauma that stemmed from her Father's choice and her Mama's response to that choice.
It was Moni, Fola's long-time friend, confidante, and agent of change, who helped her heal and find joy.
An engrossing story of how family trauma impacts the life and choices of a Nigerian woman and her extended family, where secrets old and new hide in the shadows. It's an unforgettable and highly readable book, which, once having introduced its characters, unfolds through a series of relationship intrigues and betrayals towards its dramatic conclusions.
