In 19th-century Abeokuta, a boy named Adeyemo is born with a gift that is both a blessing and a curse: he can see the Orishas. His childhood is spent in the company of gods unseen by others, a secret world that brings him both comfort and a profound, isolating loneliness. When his uncanny insights, whispered to him by the witty forest god Osanyin, find an outlet in comedy, his gift transforms him from a strange, quiet boy into a celebrated storyteller, the pride of his village.But the brighter his star burns, the darker the shadows of envy it casts. Betrayed by those he trusts most, Adeyemo is brutally murdered and cast into the cursed earth of the Evil Forest, his story seemingly at an end.Yet, for the Man Who Returned, the grave is not an end; it is a doorway. Guided by his own immortal spirit, he journeys through the surreal, cosmic realm of the dead, to the very feet of the great mother goddess Yemoja. Blessed with a new, terrifying sight and charged with a divine purpose, he must claw his way back to the world of the living a world that now sees him as a ghoul, a monster, an abomination.To reclaim his name, Adeyemo must confront the men who killed him, the friend who broke his heart, and the very nature of the gods who chose him. He must become the Seer his destiny demands, a living bridge between the world of men and the world of spirits, or be consumed by the power that has already cost him his life once.
