God's Case: No Appeal: Theo, a Nigerian barrister practising in London with a glittering career before him, suddenly decides to give up everything and returns home to take up a minor chieftancy title.

After the death of his flamboyant wife in mysterious circumstances, his alienated son takes to crime while Theo tries to revive the ancient religion of his people with horrendous results.
