My name is Ikemefuna Nwosu, and I am your wife.<\/p>\n

One day in Lagos, young dancer Ikemefuna is put on a plane to Houston to meet her new husband, Nna. Promises are made to her \u2013 about her education, about the man she will marry, about her freedom.<\/p>\n

None of them are kept.<\/p>\n

A few months later, self-professed feminist Nna finds a beautiful woman cooking in his parents\u2019 kitchen. They tell him Ikemefuna is his wife, there to give them the grandson they\u2019ve been waiting for. She appears obedient, malleable.<\/p>\n

But she is no ordinary wife.<\/p>\n

In the Texas heat, patience runs on short supply and the atmosphere in the house becomes increasingly strained, increasingly violent. Desperation makes people do strange things\u2026<\/p>\n

Unpredictable and unsettling, HOUSE WOMAN is a delicious thriller you will never be able to forget.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":394754,"menu_order":0,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[1],"tags":[7319,7318],"featured":[],"topic_themes":[406,408,402,410,401,398,431,403,404,442,399,407,405],"teacher_resources__pdf":[],"age_group":[415,416],"australian_curriculum_learning_a":[4438],"text_type":[455],"by_author":[7321,7320],"acf":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.teachershub.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/books\/287709"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.teachershub.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/books"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.teachershub.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/books"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.teachershub.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/books\/287709\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.teachershub.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/394754"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.teachershub.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=287709"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.teachershub.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=287709"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.teachershub.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=287709"},{"taxonomy":"featured","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.teachershub.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/featured?post=287709"},{"taxonomy":"topic_themes","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.teachershub.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic_themes?post=287709"},{"taxonomy":"teacher_resources__pdf","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.teachershub.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/teacher_resources__pdf?post=287709"},{"taxonomy":"age_group","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.teachershub.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/age_group?post=287709"},{"taxonomy":"australian_curriculum_learning_a","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.teachershub.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/australian_curriculum_learning_a?post=287709"},{"taxonomy":"text_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.teachershub.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/text_type?post=287709"},{"taxonomy":"by_author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.teachershub.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/by_author?post=287709"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
