Afi Tekple is a young seamstress whose life is narrowing rapidly. She lives in a small town in Ghana with her widowed mother, spending much of her time in her uncle PiousÕs house with his many wives and children. Then one day she is offered a life-changing opportunityÑa proposal of marriage from the wealthy family of Elikem Ganyo, a man she doesnÕt truly know. She acquiesces, but soon realizes that Elikem is not quite the catch he seemed. He sends a stand-in to his own wedding, and only weeks after Afi is married and installed in a plush apartment in the capital city of Accra does she meet her new husband. It turns out that he is in love with another woman, whom his family disapproves of; Afi is supposed to win him back on their behalf. But it is Accra that eventually wins AfiÕs heart and gives her a life of independence that she never could have imagined for herself.
