Little rot

£9.99

When Kalu drops Aima at Lagos Airport, it marks the end of their four-year relationship. Shattered and broken open, he thinks that’s the last he will see of his girlfriend. But Aima is drawn back into the city – to the scandalous, decadent nightlife of her best friend. As Kalu grieves, his friend offers him an exclusive invitation to one of his sordid, global parties – a way for Kalu to escape, if only for a night. Kalu knows it will offer every possible indulgence and something even more precious: time with the man he loves, but whose actions will plunge them all into a whirling descent that pulls in everyone connected to them.

Reeling with grief from their recent breakup, Kalu and Aima are drawn into separate nights of decadence in the heart of New Lagos: a city teeming with traffic, polluted air and cracked faith.

Tonight, the pair are desperate to forget about their troubles. But when Kalu visits an exclusive sex party hosted by his best friend, Ahmed, he makes a decision that plunges the couple and their friends into the city’s corrupt and glittering underworld.
