Adanna dreams of reaching the stars, her heart set on working at NASA. But her dreams grind to dust the day her father dies, leaving her vulnerable to a fate she cannot escape. Married off to Chief Arinze Nsofor, a man old enough to be her father, she enters a life that quickly becomes a nightmare.
What she endures over the next two decades defies imagination. The walls of her husband’s home hold unspeakable horrors, the kind of pain that words cannot fully capture. She is silenced, stripped of her identity, and forced to bury her dreams under the weight of survival.
Then, one day, Chief Nsofor is found murdered. The news shocks the community, and the finger-pointing begins. Who killed Chief? Could it be his children, angered by years of neglect? An enemy seeking vengeance for his misdeeds? Or could it be Adanna, the wife who has endured unimaginable cruelty? But as secrets unravel, so does the story of a woman determined to survive, no matter the cost.
In this riveting story of resilience, Adanna’s life unfolds—a haunting reminder of the strength it takes to survive, the cost of freedom, and the courage it takes to dream again
