Synopsis "Dead on Arrival"

Ochomma, a famed warrior in Umuejia, is astounded by the sudden turn of events after a coup and a counter coup. First, Mazi Adiche's son arrives from the north, dead on arrival. As the days go by, more bodies arrive, causing a stir in the village. Then the refugees displaced by the crisis come back in droves and things take a turn for the worse. The crisis sets off a cataclysm that pushes the country to the brink of collapse, testing the very fabric of the village. A civil war between Nigeria and Biafra begins and the two sides fight a bitter war. Dead on Arrival is a story about four characters in one family; Ochomma, a legend, Chibuike his son, Iroegbulam an army officer and Sochi, 'a prodigal son'. These, all entwined in the story of the civil war, provide a glimpse into the ravages of war and the foibles of humanity. "Excellent storyteller, reminding of Chinua Achebe"....Ngozi Uwakwe, Anchor Literary Supplement "An intriguing book, one with little to fault"...Sage Review
