It is then that Tayo meets Vanessa Richardson, the beautiful daughter of an ex-colonial officer.In Dependence is Tayo and Vanessa’s story of a brave but bittersweet love affair. It is the story of two people struggling to find themselves and each other – a story of passion and idealism, courage and betrayal, and the universal desire to fall, madly, deeply, in love.
