In this gripping generational saga, the unyielding threads of resilience and identity bind three lives across continents, revealing the enduring strength of the human spirit. The novel traces the interconnected lives of Bella, her father Nnadozie, and her grandfather Boniface, weaving a tale of resilience, family conflict, and cultural identity. Born in England, Bella is taken to Nigeria at the age of five by her father, Nnadozie, thrust into a life shadowed by hardship. She endures an abusive stepmother and narrowly escapes an arranged marriage to a wealthy suitor, orchestrated by her father. Desperate for freedom, Bella reaches out to her estranged mother in England, who rescues her and brings her back to the UK. Yet, the scars of Bella’s traumatic past linger, shaping her choices and straining her relationships. Her journey grows more turbulent when she suffers the heartbreak of losing a child and later becomes entangled with a wealthy man. The relationship takes a sinister turn when he abducts their child, barring him from returning to the UK. Fuelled by unwavering determination, Bella fights relentlessly to reclaim her child and forge her own path. A story of heartbreak, defiance, and ultimate triumph. Rich with emotional depth, cultural tensions, and themes of survival and self-determination, This novel is a testament to the power of family, cultural roots, and the relentless pursuit of freedom.
