Description
In the heat of ethno-religious riots in Jos, Emeka and Hauwa are in love. Unknown to them, Hauwa is betrothed to Hassan, the head of the Shura of the Muslin brotherhood sect. Meanwhile, special agent Sean Porter is on a mission to uncover a plot by the Muslim brotherhood to deploy biological weapons. The weapons are traced to Jos. Things take an unexpected turn when Hassan stumbles upon Hauwa and Emeka in a compromising position. Burning Savannah has awoken the espionage genre in Nigerian literature.
