Description
After a violent clash between farmers and herders leaves her homeland in ruins, Kila loses everything. With nothing left but hope and a counterfeit promise of a better life in Amerika, she joins a group of desperate migrants led by the smooth-talking Kaba-only to realize too late that they've been duped. Their "passage" is a brutal gauntlet: across searing deserts, through storm-wracked seas, and into the hands of traffickers who trade in flesh and fear. As companions vanish into the sea, enslaved or subjected to unthinkable violence, Kila presses on-only to be trapped once again, this time by the COVID-19 pandemic that turns their stopover into a prison. With her body violated and her dreams shattered, Kila clings to a new, painful purpose: survive, for the child growing inside her. But what awaits her back home? Can she find redemption in a world that blames her for her scars? Will her husband, Jeff, and a patriarchal culture accept the child born of horror? Nkamanyang Lola's Desperate Journeys is a harrowing story of survival, betrayal, and the unbreakable desire to reclaim a stolen future.
