In the 1980s in Lagos, the government's war against indiscipline and austerity measures are in full swing. A succession of unfortunate events leads Tolani, a bank secretary, to be persuaded by her roommate Rose to consider drug trafficking as a way to make a living. Tolani's subsequent struggle with temptation forces her to reconsider her morality - and that of her mother Arike's - as she embarks on a turbulent journey of self-discovery. African Fiction
