Bits of Other People

By: Fapohunda

When Lagos impressionist painter Deji Depiver meets Sade - a mesmerizing singer with a voice that stirs his dormant creativity - he feels his life finally shifting back into color. But when Sade is found murdered in a church - of all places, his fragile revival collapses, pulling him into a darkness deeper than the one he escaped.

Grief-stricken and desperate for answers, Deji becomes an amatuer slueth and investigates the people who knew Sade best. Her shocking death pulls him into a web of secrets, tangled motives and half-truths. With the help of his steadfast mother Maami, his jobless but loyal friend Somto, and the ever-gossiping Mrs. Banjo, Deji pushes deeper into shadows that surround.

Just as the clues begin to align, a ghost from Deji's past returns - reopening wounds he thought had healed and complicating the search for the truth.

As he digs deeper, he discovers - not love, not family, not truth - is what it seems, forcing Deji to face the mysteries surrounding Sade and the ones buried in his own family.
