From the stunning rescue of two adolescent slave captives, to a passionate love affair with a sensually beautiful Irish widow at nineteen. From the breathtaking spectacle of his virtually barehanded lion-kill, to his great wealth, fame, and women. From the clever and dangerous rescue of Royal Niger Company men facing near-certain death at the fearsome clan of Okija, to an ingenious intervention to prevent a massacre of his people as the British marched in…

His hands shook so badly that…

ROMANCE:
Roy had started to avoid her. She had felt terribly hurt, not knowing what she had done wrong. Over the next several weeks, she had seen him at various social gatherings with a succession of girls. They were all very beautiful and obviously belonged to the right social class. She had burnt with jealousy and cried herself to sleep several times.

Her reaction was thoughtless and shocked even herself, as she threw a glassful of wine in his face, her eyes blazing...
BETRAYAL:
“You told me that it wasn’t poison,” cried Ofoma, distraught, as he gripped Ez’ibe tightly around his throat with both hands. “You swore that what you gave to me was to make me able to control his mind, to make him do whatever I say.” His eyes were wild with pain and anger, and tears stood out in them as he held Ez’ibe as though he wanted to strangle him…
