IVIEKA

Ivieka tells a beautiful story of the strength of true love in the face of great adversity. It is the story of an almost impossible race to protect mankind against imminent death from a troublesome and choleric crown jewel stolen by a colonial era Consul General when Benin Kingdom was invaded, and the African ancient land desecrated by British soldiers. The crown jewel had been stolen over a hundred years and in that period, it had bequeathed great wealth and affluence to those who possessed it but now it is time to torment not just those who were guilty of the theft and the brutal invasion but everyone within reach of its choleric rage.

Ivieka must be stopped, or many would die from its venoms. The only antidote to its destructive powers is in a diary written by a Catholic priest who had lived five hundred years earlier and had been privileged to see what was to come. But the diary had been written in codes. The urgent task now is to decipher the codes, but the key is in the head of the dead priest.

With people dying mysteriously and the lives of members of the family of his future wife dangerously imperiled, one has already been killed by Ivieka’s venoms and another, a ten-year-old is on the throes of death, Francis Boyo must dare and follow the path first blazed by another man, his boss who had also been killed by Ivieka. Failure would only mean tears and blood and death of domino proportions.

The story is filled with twists, surprises, fear, and nerve-wracking tension as the story raced to an unimaginable end.
