Every relationship comes at a cost in this tense and gripping
Turkish mystery from award-winning crime writer Barbara Nadel and
featuring Ikmen - 'one of modern crime fiction's true heroes' The
Times When jeweller Fahrettin Muftugolu is found dead in his
apartment in the Istanbul district of Vefa, it looks like suicide.
Searching the jeweller's home, Inspector Mehmet Suleyman and his
team come across a hoard of extraordinary artefacts including solid
gold religious relics and a mummified human head. But are they real
and, if so, who owns these priceless possessions? As his colleagues
begin their investigation, Suleyman is distracted by troubles of
his own. His wedding to Gonca Serekoglu is days away, but when
Gonca receives her bridal bedcover from a Roma haberdasher and
discovers that it is covered in blood, she sees this as a curse on
their marriage. Suleyman asks his old friend Cetin Ikmen to help
him uncover the truth, but the task is not that simple...
Meanwhile, as the stories swirling around Muftugolu become
increasingly sinister, the dead man's wife appears, laying claim to
his valuables, and Suleyman is drawn into a dark and dangerous
world of smuggling and savagery . . .
