      Set against the backdrop of Kenyan politics and societal challenges, the story follows Muriuki as he leaves his village for the city in search of a better life with his love, Mumbi. Their journey is fraught with economic struggles, racism, and the harsh realities of a post-colonial world. Mumbi's tragic murder due to her activism ignites Muriuki's quest for vengeance, leading to a controversial act that alters the course of his life and deepens his sense of betrayal by those he once trusted.

It is also an act of celebration, reminding readers of the brilliance of the best-known writers to emerge from this part of the world, and heralding the birth of new writers whose gifts, we can safely predict, will shine brightly in the years ahead"--Provided by publisher
