Coles Àbíkú: A Novel of Colonial Nigeria at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
After losing two sons under circumstances no one can fully explain, Eni Webb is left with grief, suspicion, and questions the authorities insist on asking in terms she cannot bear.
More than a century earlier, in colonial Nigeria, Cecily Ashford-Crane witnesses her husband interrupt a forbidden ceremony for a child believed to stand between worlds. What begins in that compound does not stay there. It passes through generations of women, through silence and survival, until it reaches Eni’s family in South London.
As old records surface and an inherited pattern tightens around the living, Eni must uncover the truth buried in her bloodline—and decide whether the cycle that has claimed her children can finally be broken.
Atmospheric, haunting, and unforgettable, Àbíkú is a story of family, history, loss, and the mysteries that refuse to stay buried.
