Me and the Devil. 1, #1

Me and the Devil is a haunting, slow-burn supernatural thriller set in modern-day Nairobi. When Zara Kena returns to the city after years away, she brings back more than memories-she brings the hum. It follows her from the coast to the city streets, threading through dreams of crossroads and a man with a guitar carved from shadow. Drawn into a web of ancestral bargains, cursed music, and an otherworldly song that refuses to end, Zara learns her bloodline is bound to an ancient melody-one that can only be silenced or completed.
Each chord she plays pulls her closer to the fate that claimed her mother, and closer to Musa, a mysterious figure tied to the song's creation. But every bargain has a price. Every note opens the door a little wider. And once the seventh chord sounds, there will be no turning back. Atmospheric, lyrical, and steeped in Kenyan urban myth, Me and the Devil is a story about inheritance, music, and the dangerous seduction of the things we can't let go.
