About this listen
Lives intersect for a young woman on a quest for revenge and a family man with a violent past in a haunting and provocative novel by the author of Such a Beautiful Thing to Behold.
In Jos, Nigeria, Dareng Pamson is slowly winning back the trust of his pregnant wife after his infidelity shook their marriage. When a young Muslim woman comes in out of the rain looking for work in Dareng’s auto repair shop, Dareng cautiously agrees—against his better judgment. She’s passionate and willing to learn. Besides, it’s time he started doing things differently.
After being back in her hometown for only a week, Murmula Denge finds who she’s looking for: Dareng, the Christian man whose coldhearted ambition and greed shattered her family. At first, she wants only to destroy his tenuous peace by introducing chaos. Until Murmula realises that for true closure and justice, she must go to extremes. Blood for blood.
Neither is prepared for the mysterious turning point that changes their lives forever. As they navigate the quandary of faith and the strange new ties that bind them, coming to terms with the past is only the beginning.

“Every Drop of Blood Is Red marries a thrilling, twisty premise with a moral inquiry about where we’re taken once we reach the end point of vengeance. Umar Turaki is among the most dazzling and inventive novelists I’ve come upon in years.”—Kevin Chong, The Double Life of Benson Yu

Story
Every wildfire season cloaks rural Carbon, Oregon, in smoke. This summer, all it takes is one strike of lightning for the best of friends to turn to desperate acts to make it out alive. When the latest blaze jumps a firebreak, experienced whitewater rafting guide Kristina “True” Truitt has reason to worry. Her best friend, fire battalion chief Melissa Bishop, is on the front lines. But she and Mel have a side gig vying for attention: a dangerous and illegal money drop on the banks of the wild Outlaw River—directly in the path of the fire and right under the noses of the feds.
