Summary
The Senator’s Daughter by Amaka Azie was a book that caught my attention and kept it up to the last page. I read the book in one day. You cannot help but sympathize with Nosa and his grief and need for justice. Someone close to him has died as a result of greed and they were above the law. So he decides to get justice his own way. It was well planned out. He stalks Rita for weeks looking for a blip in her security. Rita is the daughter of Senator Obaseki. She appears spoiled and without a plan for life. Watching their relationship develop during her kidnapping was endearing. I loved both Nosa and Rita. They mystery was suspenseful in that I kept thinking Nosa would get caught. You figure out who the villain is but there is still suspense until the end.
The book was interesting form the perspective of the Nigerian politics and justice system. Part of me wonders how much of this happens in the US and is just not as visible.
I truly enjoyed this story and would recommend. It was my first book about a couple from Nigeria and I was totally engrossed in their story.
