When Gold Bleeds
For five hundred years, the people of Orsu feared Azoro as an evil forest, a cursed land where the dead whispered through the trees and no sane man dared to build. But beneath its haunted soil lies something more dangerous than spirits-gold.
When billionaire Chief Maduka Ikoku discovers the secret, he hides his ambition behind a promise of farms, jobs, roads, schools, and community development. Foreign partners, political fixers, ex-spies, and old criminals gather around the treasure, each smiling with one hand extended and the other reaching for a knife.
Then an ambush in Lagos shatters everything.
Chief Maduka is left fighting for his life, and his daughter, Brenda, barely escapes death. As betrayal creeps from the boardroom into the family home, Brenda discovers that the attack was not merely business rivalry-it was a conspiracy built on greed, lust, political power, and the twenty per cent development fund meant to transform Orsu.
Forced to inherit her father's dangerous world, Brenda must outthink men who command guns, intelligence networks, money, and silence. But every secret she uncovers leads deeper into a web where servants become informants, lovers become weapons, and allies may be enemies waiting for the right price.
In a world where gold buys loyalty and blood pays debts, Brenda Ikoku must decide how far she is willing to go to protect her family, expose the wolves, and survive the curse of Azoro.
Because when gold begins to bleed, it never bleeds alone.
