THE GOLDEN STAFF: Hello people, it's been a long time. I have been busy writing and ensuring that two of my novels get published; one in 2013 and another last year 2014. The first, The Golden Staff was published by Kwadwoan Publishers based in Accra, Ghana, West Africa. This is a children's adventure cum mystery. It is about a prominent family whose patriach was framed by his rival and his two children Korkor, Tiwaa and their friend Ade go to great lengths to exonerate him. "Maama, Maame, where are you?" Tiwaa cried out. No reply came to her. Looking into the pot sitting on the kitchen table, she quickly pinched a piece of meat from it and wiped her hand on the edge of her school uniform. The last time Tiwaa and her family had a peaceful and shielded serene life was after she happily swallowed the piece of meat she stole from the pot of stew. Her once lovely family now stands on the edge of a precipice that threatens to destroy them and the only way out, was to find the culprit who had disrupted their lives." Through a series of dangerous and mysterious escapades, the three teens are able to solve the mystery behind their father's disgrace. It is a novel that teaches a lesson of strength, determination, boldness and truth regardless of the dangerous consequences. The teens success testifies that right always wins in the end. The Golden Staff like all my novels is based in an African village. The African culture and its exotic mysteries are clearly depicted in this novel, the picture of which is on my Facebook page. I would like to hear your comments about this novel which can be purchased in any reputable bookshop in Ghana, especially, Legon Bookshop. Enjoy!
