À propos de cet audio

This lush and suspenseful Good Morning America Book Club pick “will have you glued to every page” (HuffPost) as it follows a woman to Nigeria to uncover what happened to her missing estranged niece…no matter the cost.

Previously published as The Nigerwife.

Nicole Oruwari has the perfect life: a handsome husband, a palatial house in the heart of Lagos, and a glamorous group of friends. She left gloomy London and a troubled family past behind for sunny Lagos, becoming part of the Nigerwives—a community of foreign women married to Nigerian men.

But when Nicole disappears without a trace after a boat trip, the cracks in her alleged perfect life start to show. As the investigation turns up nothing but dead ends, her auntie Claudine decides to take matters into her own hands. Armed with only a cell phone and a plane ticket to Nigeria, she digs into her niece’s life and uncovers a hidden side filled with dark secrets, isolation, and even violence. But the more she discovers about Nicole, the more Claudine’s own buried history threatens to come to light.

Offering a razor-sharp look at the bonds of family, the echoing consequences of secrets, and whether we can ever truly outrun our past, The Lagos Wife “is a gripping work of suspense, a psychological puzzle, a mystery, and a critique of marriage and high society” (Shelf Awareness).

I know there were some mixed reviews, some felt like it was tryna start diaspora war but I don’t think so, It just depends on the individuals experience. For some it can be a truly beautiful thing when the two cultures mix and this is speaking from experience and for some it may not be but you have to keep open mind and be welling to learn from one another. Aside from that I loved story especially because I’m of Caribbean descent myself . I appreciate that the author tied in the topic of slavery because it’s so deeply linked to the Caribbean and its culture and it may be the reason why our families act the way they do .As an individual it also makes you question where did you really come from? Then when you add that to marrying a man raised in such a rich African culture those thoughts amplify it’s like longing for belonging but also wanting to be loved and respected. Aside from that the story was amazing I loved how it went back forth between past and present so that you can truly understand the characters and their dark secrets

The story was Amazing
