Oh, no Burcak Veral--kickboxing transvestite, nightclub owner, Audrey Hepburn lookalike, and amateur sleuth--has "finally" been invited to strut her stuff on a local television show. But during her appearance, an angry viewer calls in vowing to kill off everyone close to Burcak. Later that night, the show's host is shot dead. What did Burcak do to infuriate the mystery caller? And in a city as chaotic as Istanbul, where does a girl even begin to look?
Dressed to the nines and ready to fight--or flirt--Burcak sets off on a desperate manhunt in another delicious Turkish Delight adventure.

Istanbul's most fabulously flamboyant sleuth is back in her second hilarious adventure
With its exotic Istanbul setting and racy peeks into the city's nightlife, "The Kiss Murder" left readers eager for more of Mehmet Murat Somer's charmingly original heroine. Software programmer by day and drag-queen club owner by night, our girl is back again, just jilted and feeling so blue she's violet?until she meets the hunky, married lawyer, Haluk Perkedem. When their conversation is interrupted by a phone call delivering news that his brother-in-law has been arrested for the murder of a notorious gigolo, she decides to put her sleuthing instincts and Thai kickboxing skills to work unraveling the crime. Filled with witty banter and ominous intrigue, mystery fans of all persuasions will find "The Gigolo Murder" this season's hottest read.

Devastated by the end of her relationship, our heroine swaps her catsuit for pyjamas and hides away from the world. But her friends from the nightclub refuse to let her waste away in self-pity and drag her out to make up the numbers for a party. Only full make-up will suffice, and there's serious grooming to be done before our girl's up to the challenge - her state of misery has left her so thin that even her favourite Audrey Hepburn number doesn't cling the way it should. At the soiree, she becomes entranced with a powerful married man, but it's unlikely their paths will cross again. Until a body is found in the street, stabbed to death - the victim, a gigolo, has connections to the object of her affection. And it seems that the gigolo lifestyle can leave one, ahem, exposed to hidden dangers. Our girl valiantly agrees to take on the case - any meetings with her beloved are an incidental added bonus.
