Red Sun Nightmare - Paperback

by Paul Otu Winner (Author)

When twelve-year-old Janelle travels from America to Nigeria for the first time, she expects adventure, not abduction. But in a nation scarred by a growing kidnapping industry, her journey turns into a nightmare. She is forced to face unthinkable violence and fear, and every day is a battle for survival.

Together with other captives, Janelle must gamble her life for freedom, never certain if escape means safety or a harsher reality.

Beyond Janelle's story lies a broader portrait of Nigeria's struggles: a nation torn by terrorism, insurgency, and the power plays of politics, ethnicity, and religion. With gripping clarity, the author paints a picture of both the human cost of captivity and the larger forces fueling insecurity across West Africa.
