But her resolve is tested by Martins, her absentee husband's closest friend who seeks refuge in her home after he is evicted by his landlord. But Shola will soon find that Martins and Boga are two points in an ever-tightening cat's cradle of violence, betrayal, and deceit that threatens her career and her very life.
