Young maidens are being raped and murdered in Amaife. The killer always leaves behind a souvenir: A torn piece of 'okrika' clothe. The once peaceful community is thrown into chaos; the masses are provoked, the elders are clueless, families are scared and the gods of the land seem powerless to stop the murders.
A young team arrives from the city for a week long crusade and the young evangelists meet the village in a state of emergency. The leader, a young pastor named Osi meets Amara, a beautiful, intelligent girl and they develop feelings for each other as they try to solve the crime(s)
The killer is a member of the community; very intelligent, cunning and dangerous but who? Who could be behind such gruesome acts? Surely not a man but a devil.
And beautiful Amara is his next target.....
