Description

In a concise manner, this prosaic work attempts to satirize some of the social ills present in our contemporary society. In addition, the author asserts that humans are the chief architects of their problems, and must be willing to accept their doom as a recompense for their belligerent behaviour. This anaphoric preachment has completely erased Lucy’s family, where Elizabeth tries to display her cruelty by murdering her husband and stabbing her mother-in-law in one unforgettable night of melancholy in the history of the Orua community.But where will she run to without meeting up the law of equital? Must she go free from all the atrocity that she has committed? And what about the unjust leaders in the society she finds herself, will they be spared? This thought provoking text then captures the fate of persons who heckle and jeopardise the lives of the weak, simply because they have the power to… Elizabeth, an agent of doom, conspired with her sister Ebere- Chika’s sisters to snatch Dr. Lewis from Iheoma. Now married to Onyirinnaya- Iheoma’s brother, Onyirinnaya refuses to adhere the stern warnings of his sister’s ghost to kill his wife after discovering the sudden changes in her husband’s behaviour, coupled with the films they watched that recapped the atrocity and brutality she committed years ago with her sister. Elizabeth later murders her husband before Lucy, the ageing parent. In the attempt to avenge her son’s death, the old woman is squarely dashed to the ground, and in the endeavour to hide the little babe, who would subsist the family lineage, Lucy is also fatally stabbed. This calls for a celestial reprisal for the astronomical homicide committed. Wow what a stirring and emotive story! Read and find out how Elizabeth meets her waterloo. Don’t miss to grab a copy now.
