Rate this book
Daniel grew up without a father. His mother told him that his father died the year he was born, and he had no reason to doubt her … until now. Daniel’s getting married next week.
He’s got his future all worked out.
It’s his past that’s the problem… Daniel never knew his father. All his mother would say was that his dad had been a Nigerian who died the year Daniel was born. He didn’t even know what his dad looked like, until an old neighbour showed him a picture. But the man in photo is still alive…and now Daniel will stop at nothing to find him.

Daniel grew up without a father. His mother told him that his father died the year he was born, and he had no reason to doubt her until now. Daniel's getting married soon. He's got his future all worked out. It's his past that's the problem! Daniel never knew his father. All his mother would say was that his dad had been a Nigerian who died the year Daniel was born. He didn't even know what his dad looked like, until an old neighbour showed him a picture. But the man in photo is still alive and now Daniel will stop at nothing to find him.
