Love and betrayal are central to the story of Echoes of a Heartbeat. Lagos, Nigeria's vibrant commercial capital is abuzz with Christmas shoppers when Kehinde Lawson catches her fiance Derrick Williams cheating and in despair walks under a car. Dr. Femi who drove the car that hit her saves her life and mends her heart. But as dark shadows lurk behind silver linings, so sorrow trails happiness for Kehinde. Death, pain, sorrow and further betrayal await her as Derrick again appears just when the love of a good man heals her broken heart.

As if on cue, Victor grabbed the bucket of eba and I grabbed the bowl of geisha and we took off, followed by a horde of salivating hangers-on shouting at the top of their voices that we should “stop, slow down, its only small we want to eat”...
