The Wide Road

Autor Ogun Yemi
en Limba Engleză Paperback
FLIGHT was an ambitious program devised by a group headed by Kim on order of the U.S. President. It was to secure for the United State's fourteen-trillion-dollar economy its voracious crude oil needs. Few years into implementing FLIGHT and with political terrains rapidly shifting in Washington, Kim faced sudden political death from FLIGHT's fallouts. Still, there were other more surreal developments.
In West Africa, Kim sat atop a heavily disguised gemstones cartel. Now, its core workings had just been accessed and offered for sale by a remorseless moneygrubber who, interestingly, was on Kim's payroll. Events took even a sharper turn when one of the players turned out to be Pablo, a wealthy, ruthless crime lord in California.
Kim knew he could survive FLIGHT's fallout unscathed; but only if he could keep a lid on his West Africa ventures. This brought him into an all-out showdown with a psychopathic Pablo who felt he was well placed to guarantee Kim's failure notwithstanding the consequences. Given the resolves of all players involved, the stage was set for intrigues, violence, and deaths not only in Nigeria where it all began but also in the United States, which hosted the grande finale.
The Wide Road explores the lives of two Africans; bitter from decades of deprivation; reeling from identity crisis; and running away from Africa's decay. Their paths led them into this dangerous crossfire of Washington's power play.
