Set in Istanbul, this mystery turns a chance sighting and a simple handoff into a much larger incident. Centered on Nuri Bey, it builds a chain of unpredictable clues while drawing strength from its sense of place and cultural texture.

An ordinary errand pulls the whole city atmosphere into the mystery.
