Echoes From The Grave - 9781619571419

Echoes from the Grave is a classical piece of figurative work in which the author juxtaposes the unseen force of the natural law of justice with mortal man's manipulation of events for their ambition. The story is a holistic pendulum that swings through all sectors of human life on one hand and the handling of their institutions on the other. Jodu's father, Agya Kra, dies mysteriously. Jodu believes he was murdered. In trying to solve the mystery, he clashes with certain personalities in the Community. To save his neck and prove his point, he sets himself and a group of sympathizers up in the jungle. From their hideout in the wilderness, outlawed by the Community, they devise their strategies to vindicate themselves, with what seems to be natural forces supporting them. This piece brings into memory the medieval English story of Robin Hood. Though a creative artwork, one can also deduce a robust political tone of conflict between the human powers that be and the cowered citizenry in which the authoritarian political head uses all that is in their ability to silence the abused citizen. The author, W. Joe Adusei shows his mastery use of suspense to swing the pendulum in holding the reader from making their judgment till the very end of the story.
