The Last Sin

About the Book

Hers Was a Case of Conspiracy . . . . . . as the African continent comes under siege by very horrid theories. But the assignment of one BBC reporter to decipher the true revelations of hell emanating from Sierra Leone brings him one step closer to her most crucial assignment. The Nigerian woman Eni Jacobs must save her marriage even as the news of her affair with the bishop of her father’s ministry hit the World Wide Web. She is isolated and stigmatised, even when their affair is a ripple effect of an old flame she must avoid now. Bishop Lloyd is married. Besides, Eni is getting married to his younger brother, Luke, in two weeks. A Hope James C. Nwabueze writes with aplomb on such real issues that beset us as humans: the concept of our frailty, the demand for morality, the reality of hell. Eni returns to her family in Nigeria to face the shame and horror. But how can she cope through all these? Will Luke accept her back? And what about her newfangled feelings for Smith, the BBC reporter who now seeks to see her through this mess for Luke’s place? Will she accept his offer or fight to make her marriage work, even with the last revelation that will change their lives forever? The last sin? Author’s Note The Last Sin is a novel based on a true African story, set in Nigeria and the UK. These events, however, are entirely fictitious and bear no claim to any organisation or anyone whether dead or alive. Other names, co-ops, and scenes are nothing more than figments of the author’s imagination, bent upon creating the most believable, picturesque background for the reading delight of our numerous readers. Also, The conversations, quotations, and thought lines used in this book have been greatly inspired from the author’s own philosophical point of view. However, it may be quoted only in the context of the particular scene, situation, or character for better allusion.

About the Author

James C. Nwabueze is a Nigerian. A social critic. A sociologist major in human behaviours analysis. James is an easy going, fun loving and charismatic phlegm, a young man whose quest for a beautiful, fairer society compelled him to write the soul-starring Christian Novel: The Last Sin. An African story based on a true Nigeria story of love and betrayal and the redemptive plan of God. I was born on the 2nd of October, 1989 to a very honest, loving, stringent Christian parents in a town called Sapele in Delta State. An Indie author with my debut novel: The Last Sin, internationally acclaimed as one of Africa's best selling Novels, I have begun to write a very young age. But... I never believed I was called to write. It's hard to know really where to start when I describe such initial phrase. For those that know my story, I would be the last person on the list who would be "qualified" in the end to write a fiction novel, especially one of the caliber of The Last Sin. I began to write since I was about ten or eleven years. But I was not an English nor a Creative Writing major. My degree is in Engineering. I was a computer programmer/Engineering communications geek. Then as the journey of life went on ahead, I saw myself more on the side of being the one to argue out the expected outcome of sales or negotiations and then marketing. I soon became a marketing geek. I still represent some international IT firms in my country Nigeria. Most of my clients and friends would still expect me to be good at my programming or marketing, not fiction writing, my father especially who lured me into studying engineering in the first place. But when you give your life to Christ and tell him, "I don't know what you want me to do, but I'm available. Use me as you want," things tend to happen that surpass your wildest dreams. Then I can say again, "I was called to write!" I have since trained with the British Council as a professional English Language expert.
