She believes in I.V. lines and blood pressure cuffs, in the 2,400-square-foot house she bought with her own hands, in the empty bedroom she keeps waiting for something real. So when Anthony Umoh finds her at a Lagos wedding-handsome, hungry, calling her \u003ci\u003e\"my angel\"\u003c\/i\u003e-she checks his references. She hires the lawyer. She pays the $15,000 and files the K-1 visa paperwork herself. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eShe's careful. She's precise.

As the deportation ignites a social media firestorm, as his real wife calls with accusations, as the church that blessed her marriage now judges her soul, Sarah discovers the most dangerous truth of all: the man who conned her saw something in her she didn't know was there.
