"Some stories are written in ink, Others, in the heart... This one is both." When seventeen-year-old Essie discovers an old leather journal beneath her father's bed, she expects forgotten receipts or notes from a life too ordinary to matter. What she finds instead is a past pulsing with heartbreak, fire, and a love that refused to die. Through the pages of her father Henry's journal, a decades-old secret unfolds - of Uju, the woman who haunted his silence, and the journey that took him from desire to devastation, and from loss to redemption. Set against the vibrant backdrops of Ibadan, Abuja, Lagos, and Enugu, Henry's Journal is a hauntingly beautiful tale of what happens when two souls collide at the wrong time... and still try to love anyway. This is a story about the ones who leave lasting marks, the ones who carry them, and the children caught between memory and truth. Love isn't always a fairytale. But sometimes... the truth is more powerful than the ending.
