  Ashes and Evidence .A Fourteen year-old Angela Bello was a bright, spirited girl with dreams of becoming a journalist until her life was cut short in the most horrific way. One summer afternoon, Angela vanished on her way home from school, leaving behind only a torn backpack and unanswered questions. Days later, her lifeless body was discovered in a river on the outskirts of town violated, murdered, and discarded like a secret meant to stay hidden. 
  As the small community reels from the shock, a determined female detective, Ijeoma Okoro, refuses to let Angela become just another cold case. Haunted by her own childhood trauma, Ijeoma pushes through corrupt systems, apathetic officials, and a town that would rather forget than face the ugly truth. Every clue she uncovers points toward a chilling web of power, privilege, and silence. 
   But the deeper she digs, the more dangerous the trail becomes. Someone is watching. Someone wants the past buried. As Ijeoma races against time to bring Angela’s killer to justice, she must confront not only a brutal crime but a society that protects predators and punishes victims. 
  Ashes and Evidence is a harrowing yet powerful story of loss, truth, and the fight for justice in a world where too many voices are silenced.
