About this book
Summary
The Weight of Gold in Human Hands is a modern, human-centered retelling of the Midas myth that trades fantasy spectacle for emotional realism. When Jonah Adeyemi discovers that his touch can turn metal into pure gold, his quiet life unravels under the pressure of wealth, power, and expectation. As governments, corporations, friends, and strangers pull at him from every side, Jonah must decide whether his gift is a tool for salvation or a test of character. Through intimate moments, moral conflict, and hard restraint, the story explores generosity, responsibility, and the limits of control. This audiobook is not about riches gained, but about what remains when a person chooses humanity over power, and restraint over glory.Book information
