Nyambura Mkhize spent five years building her reputation at Okeke & Associates — arriving early, leaving last, trusting the mentor who shaped everything she knew about the law — and it takes one folder on a police table to show her exactly what that trust was worth. Her name is on six fake property deals totaling forty-eight million naira, the signature close enough to hers to be dangerous, and when she confronts Kwesi Okeke, he doesn't deny it — he just tells her no one will believe her. So she walks out, takes three loyal clients, and sets up a tiny firm in Victoria Island with nothing but her own name on the door and everything left to prove. Then Lwazi Okeke — her mentor's son — walks through that door, asking her to take his case and looking at her like the last five years never happened. With Kwesi's reach extending toward her new clients and Lwazi standing on the wrong side of a line she can't afford to blur, Nyambura must ask herself the question no law school ever prepared her for: how do you rebuild everything you lost when the man who destroyed you just sent his son to find you?
