Benson Dickson is waiting at Calabar airport for one woman when another walks into his life.
Angel is Russian-born, carrying two passports, a disrupted travel plan, and the unmistakable fear that someone is following her. She needs local help. Benson-lonely, ambitious, and increasingly uncertain about the future he once imagined-is eager to provide it.
Angel is Russian-born, carrying two passports, a disrupted travel plan, and the unmistakable fear that someone is following her. She needs local help. Benson-lonely, ambitious, and increasingly uncertain about the future he once imagined-is eager to provide it.
Soon Angel seems to bring everything closer: desire, money, purpose, escape, and a life far larger than the one Benson has been living.
But something is wrong.
Time begins to slip. Memories refuse to line up. People Benson trusts insist on versions of events he cannot accept. Angel's secrets are drawing danger into Calabar, and the more perfect Benson's new future becomes, the less the facts seem willing to support it.
Benson thinks the question is whether Angel is lying.
He may be asking the wrong question.
The Russian Aphrodisiac is a darkly funny psychological thriller about desire, deception, identity, dangerous secrets-and how badly we can want a story to be true.
