The holidays are over but the murders aren't.
***
Deep in the city of Ikoyi, blood has become a daily alarm. With the amount of people being killed rising and the numerous calls to fight against this insurgency, the residents are doused with fear as the city tips between peace and utter chaos.
Zara, an ever anxious and over thinking teenager, has come back with her family from their vacation to the United States, finding their hometown ablaze with all these news of murders that have suddenly become an epidemic. But with her goal to pass her external exams in flying colors and still keep herself together despite her family's many abuses, the murders are little more than stories that cause a stroke of anxiety before she is once again swamped with her own problems.
But when Zara's mother is murdered in cold blood, she is suddenly thrust headfirst into this epidemic that has ransacked her home. Nothing ever happens without a reason and whatever killed her mother may be coming for her too.
