What happens when the bullet doesn’t kill you — but everything after tries to?
In this gripping, true-life memoir, Anthony Johnson recounts the night he was shot on a Lagos balcony — and the agonizing journey that followed. From being denied emergency care without a police report to being detained while bleeding, this is a story of survival against silence, red tape, and injustice.
But A Shot in the Dark is not just about pain. It’s about resilience, faith, and the mission that follows survival. With raw honesty and deep reflection, Anthony takes you from the trauma to the transformation — from wounded to warrior.
For readers of survival memoirs, faith-based triumphs, and African truth-telling, this book will move you — and stay with you.
Your scar has a voice. It’s time to use it.
