"RAN AWAY." So began a score of advertisements every week in the
New Orleans newspapers, advertising for slaves who'd fled their
masters. But the Turk, Huseyin Pasha, posted no such advertisement
when his two lovely concubines disappeared. And when a witness
proclaimed that he'd seen the "devilish Infidel" hurl the two
girls' dead bodies from his attic window on Bourbon Street,
everyone in New Orleans "knew" of the proverbial jealousy of Turks
and was willing to believe him the murderer. Only Benjamin January,
driven by memories of his first meeting with the Turk in Paris ten
years before, is willing to brave public outrage and mob violence
to seek for the true culprit. The quest takes him back to memories
of tragedy, and, in pursuing them, he finds himself the target of
accusations which endanger his family, his freedom . . . and his
life.
