CITY OF SHADOWS

Adrian disliked being the centre of attention. Working his dull office job in the basement of a large tech company in Lagos was all he wanted—a quiet life. To be honest, neither he nor anyone else really spoke to each other. He was okay with that. But when Lara arrived, everything was different. She was different from the others. She was intelligent, brave, and she did notice him. What began as light conversation evolved into something much more profound. She then came clean to him one evening, revealing that her boss, the CEO, was concealing a significant secret. Something hazardous. A whole secret at the mafia level. Adrian is currently caught up in something for which he is not prepared. Lara needs him, but he's afraid. She also gives him the impression that he can be more than just the quiet guy in the basement.



In a city full of secrets, love, fear, and betrayal, sometimes the quiet ones got the loudest fight.
