Sam comes home and finds his wife Efe gone. He hears from her sister Serwaa that Efe has returned to Ghana. He is distraught and does not know what happened to make her leave.
Efe and her sister Serwaa were raised in Ghana but when they become teenagers, their parents believe they would get a better education in London, England. Efe is introverted and does not make friends as easy as her sister. Her friend Abbey introduces around to some friends.
The book begins with Efe returning to Ghana and then works from the past to the present. The characters are developed, and it is written in the third person point of view. I really felt for Efe. She was always living her life to please other people. I must admit that I wanted to read this book because everyone said there was a surprise ending. It was not what I expected at all. If you like family dramas, you will enjoy reading this book.
