It all began with a favour. Kayankaya and Slibulsky had wanted to
help out Romario, the owner of a small Brazilian restaurant, when
he is threatened by extortionists. Then suddenly there were two
bodies on the floor of Romario's restaurant, their faces caked in
white powder. Kayankaya is troubled by these deaths and decides to
find out who the men are, until he himself is pursued by a mafia
organisation about whom nothing appears to be known. Gradually it
becomes clear to Kayankaya that he is facing the most brutal and
dangerous group of gangsters to have run Frankfurt's station
quarter. And then a new assignment comes in: he is to find a woman
he has seen in a video film, and who he is convinced was looking at
him from the screen. Kismet is a brilliant novel about organised
crime, the fallout from the Balkan wars, and the madness of
nationalism from one of Europe's finest crime writers.
