Description

In the shadowed heart of pre-colonial Zimbabwe, where the Chipochashe River whispers secrets older than time, the village of Mutambara trembles. Seven girlsinnocent souls aged five to twelvevanish at dusk, snatched by the cunning njuzu, mermaids whose siren songs weave doom. Nyasha's fate chills the deepest: lured by a vision of shimmering beauty, she steps into the river's embrace, deaf to her mother's screams. Crude spears and desperate rituals fail against the unseen, drowning parents in griefChipo's wails, Netsai's scars, Paidamoyo's fading breath. Centuries later, on a fateful full moon in 2025, they return, black-eyed and eternal, unleashing a flood that swallows all. What lies beneath the river's calm? Dive into a tale of haunting loss and vengeful spirits, where innocence meets the abyss.
