Description
Gordon Tilson is a lonely American widower who befriends a young Ghanaian woman online. When her sister is injured in a car accident, he sends her thousands of dollars to cover the hospital bill and, impulsively, runs off to Ghana to surprise his new love.
Both Gordon and his money immediately disappear … Fearing for his father’s life, his son Derek follows him to Accra, where he and local detective Emma Djan soon find themselves deep in a world of email scams and those willing to kill to protect their secrets.
