From the eyes of a spinster is an unusual story, a story like no other.

Set in the heart of Nigeria, the story centers round the lives of 3 sisters as they journey through the battlefield called life. Molested by her cousin at the tender age of ten, an incident which left the vibrant yet timid Sakinah Bello Gada live her life behind shadows in constant fear of the unknown.

Trapped between the rock and a hard place, Nafisa Bello Gada is forced to tread on a wrong path, a decision fuelled by unquenchable desires . What goes around they say surely comes around! What happens when a dirty past threatens to cause a hindrance in a nice and blooming future?

Elegant, charismatic, pristine.... All are words that do justice to the best amongst the Gada triplets. Wallowing in the sheer exuberance of youth, with eligible suitors ready to jump into the deepest of oceans for her, Safinah Bello Gada allows herself get consumed by pride and greed. What happens when she wakes up one day with no single suitor? A late marriage or a spinster for life?
