Ayo, the quiet shrine caretaker, faces the ultimate test when desperate Amaka begs for help to save her family from a deadly spirit. As ancient taboos are broken and tragedy strikes, Ayo must confront forces that threaten to destroy everything—forcing him to choose between tradition, faith, and forbidden feelings. If he fails, an entire family’s destiny will shatter.
Half-blind Ifedike survives Lagos by solving spiritual problems for the desperate, but when Halima—a beautiful young woman tormented by terrifying dreams and unexplained sickness—arrives at his bamboo stand, he senses a darkness bigger than any he’s faced. In her cramped, haunted room, a stray dog with mismatched eyes guards a deadly secret: every night, a spirit husband possesses it to claim Halima’s soul. Tonight, Ifedike must risk his life and unleash forbidden powers, or Halima will become a bride in the spirit world before morning.
