When Vivian leaves Uganda for Manchester, she believes she is starting over.
Instead, she meets Marcus.
He is charming. Wealthy. Generous beyond reason.
He offers her everything she lacks. A luxury flat. A powerful job. A life that feels secure at last.
But every gift comes with a price.
Every promise tightens a grip she cannot see.
As Vivian fades under Marcus's supernatural control, her eighteen-year-old sister Agnes steps in. Guided by ancestral knowledge and fierce love, Agnes follows her sister into a world ruled by an ancient force that feeds on women who are far from home and easy to isolate.
This is not just a love story gone wrong.
It is a contract. And contracts like this are written in blood.
A Contract in Kindness is a dark gothic novel about migration, power, and the lengths a sister will go to save the one person she cannot lose.
