- This novel won the 1997 Valco Trust Fund Literary Award, before publication. Set in Keta township in the Volta region, the story explores the mysteries of the supernatural. The town was built by Europeans on land below sea level, but when the sea waves smash up buildings and wash away highways, is it a manifestation of a natural phenomenon or a punishment from the gods for the sins of people? Can material wealth be acquired through ritual murder? The story of the deeds and passions of the Keta community are central to the story.
