The most powerful man in the country has been abandoned. The only person who can save him is a child his government forgot.
At the height of a spectacular national celebration, President Adrian Kweku Vale's security detail suddenly disappears. His vehicles leave without him. His communications fail. And somewhere within the machinery of government, a dangerous conspiracy is unfolding.
Stranded among thousands of citizens, the President finds an unlikely guide: Eli Mensah, a ten-year-old street child who knows how to survive in places the government barely acknowledges.
As security forces scramble to locate their missing leader and powerful interests exploit the confusion, Adrian discovers a devastating truth. The child protecting him has been denied the very benefits of a social-protection law he personally championed.
With enemies closing in, the President must navigate a world beyond motorcades, official statistics and carefully managed appearances. But the greatest threat to his presidency may not be the conspiracy that abandoned him.
It may be the truth about the country he believed he governed.
The Abandoned President is a gripping political thriller about power, betrayal, survival and the extraordinary courage of those society has forgotten.
