A Contract in Kindness

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.
