Thanks to an early netgalley courtesy of Bloomsbury, I had great fun reading this mystery set in Nigeria, pointing a heavy finger at the corrupt evangelical churches which are huge in Africa and the US. 

The plot is almost a side issue but the atmospheric portrait of some key characters and life in Nigeria is what I found entertaining, mainly around Philip Taiwo, an investigative psychologist, his formidable wife, pastor Jeremiah Dawodu, head of a Nigerian mega church who becomes a chief suspect when his wife Folsade goes missing and is eventually found dead. The corrupt entourage around the bishop is heavily borrowed from real life TV churches. In the novel they are trying their best to keep Taiwo poking around to find the truth around Folsade's death. 

Definitely a mystery that stands out by its Nigerian setting alone.
