Her troubles had a deeper cause than she could ever imagine…
 

It’s 1966 and the lovely Ada, toast of her village and pride of her family, looks ahead to a bright future, especially when she falls in love with Alaba, the man of her dreams. Her only dilemma is that her parents, proud custodians of their Igbo heritage, are disappointed with her choice and strictly forbid her to marry a Yoruba man. But Alaba has captured her heart for good, and Ada adamantly refuses to give him up; even when her mother threatens her with a deadly curse.

The couple ultimately have their way and quickly relocate to Lagos, to build their new home together. But, as the years progress, Ada’s life takes an unexpected turn. The fabric of her marriage begins to wear thin; and each of her three children bring her frightful emotional agony.

Could a mother’s curse in any way hold so much power?

The tribulations and aspirations of this family of five driven by the strange power of a curse will keep you turning the pages of this novel until the very end
