Violets And Dust by Aminat Shiyanbade

Aminat Shiyanbade’s Violets and Dust began with a young writer, who purchased a mini cabin to escape the distractions of life – and focus on writing his book. Unknown to him, the house was haunted by the ghost of a child, who died sixty years ago, killed by the hands of her father, who not only drowned her, but left her remains unburied in an old cottage. The ghostly presence is usually welcomed with the scent of violet and dust, which usually comes before a mental and physical attack, and would suddenly fade away in moments, until the young writer met Mad Frank, an old fellow in his eighties who daunted him at first, but appeared after his death to help the young writer unravel the mystery behind the ‘Violets and Dust.’
