Richard was a general partner at the Clark and Warnke law firm, which Nachman International Trading Corporation (NITC) retained. He had been in Lagos, Nigeria, for business, and when he returned, he learned that the CEO of Nachman International Trading Corporation (NITC), Frederick David Nachman (Freddie), was reported missing in Lagos. He was then tasked with going back to Nigeria and finding Freddie. Situations surrounding Richard's previous trip to Nigeria led to him entering Nigeria again without a visa, and this was a dangerous move. Because he entered the country without a visa, he was held in a detention cell after his arrival until his lawyer (as he claimed) could bring his visa. Will his lawyer be there before the time he was given runs out? Will he be able to locate Freddie's whereabouts?

The way the author structured this book made it easy to read and understand. The chaotic and somewhat corrupt atmosphere at the airport sets the stage for the broader themes of the book, hinting at the challenges and moral ambiguities that Richard will face as he enters Lagos on his mission.

When Clifford informed Richard about his rescue mission, I admired the way Richard thought about the ideas on how the mission would go, what was required, and the money that would be needed. It was as if he had been planning for it his whole life. Furthermore, the author's meticulous attention to historical accuracy greatly enhances the book's authenticity and depth. This comprehensive historical backdrop serves to vividly illustrate the complex geopolitical landscape of the era, effectively conveying the high stakes and urgency of the central mission.

I recommend Quest: Finding Freddie by Thomas Richard Spradlin to anyone who is interested in reading about the corruption that existed in Nigeria in the 1970s. There is nothing about the book that needs improvement, nor is there anything that I dislike. It is my pleasure to rate the book 5 out of 5 stars. Finally, the book was professionally edited.

Ruth Nachman’s journey is one of the most compelling aspects of the book. Her determination and emotional resilience shine through as she navigates the agonizing uncertainty of her husband’s disappearance. The portrayal of her struggle adds a profound emotional depth to the narrative, making it not just a mystery but a story about human endurance.

[Priscilla Kurah]

The book’s pacing is perfect. Each chapter unfolds with just the right amount of suspense, gradually revealing the complexities of Freddie’s disappearance. Spradlin’s narrative style keeps you hooked from start to finish, making it hard to put the book down. I especially appreciated how the suspense is maintained without resorting to unnecessary plot twists.

[Smart Link]

Spradlin’s portrayal of Lagos during a time of political unrest is both immersive and chilling. The dangers and uncertainties faced by the characters are palpable, and the vivid descriptions make the setting come alive. The book does a fantastic job of transporting readers to that era, making the stakes feel incredibly real.
