Waiting for Maria explores the harrowing experiences of female inmates caught in Nigeria's sluggish justice system.

The arrival of an executioner heightens the urgency, casting a shadow of mortality over the inmates. Despite adversity, human compassion emerges, offering a sliver of redemption. A finalist for the Commonwealth Writers Prize, this book delves into the feminine condition, systemic challenges, and themes of justice, resilience, and the relentless pursuit of hope.
