LIGHTSEEKERS

Narrator Cary Hite draws listeners in with his nuanced delivery and cadence in this mystery inspired by a true story. After three university students are murdered by a mob in Port Harcourt, Nigeria, psychologist Dr. Philip Taiwo is brought in to investigate. As Dr. Taiwo dives deeper into the case with the help of his personal driver, Chika, listeners also learn about the socioeconomic realities of Nigeria and its multiple political and social undertones. The investigation proves that many are actively working against Dr. Taiwo as he attempts to find out the truth about what happened to the students. Fast-paced and enlightening, this is a powerful story, and Hite does a remarkable job of bringing it to life. K.S.M. © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine [Published: APRIL 2021]
