An ancient city, the oldest profession and a very modern crime . . .
In the endlessly surprising streets of Istanbul, Inspector Ikmen is called onto a troubling case.
A body of a seventeen-year-old girl has been found in a Byzantine water storage chamber lying beneath the modern city. Dressed in the elaborate costume of an Ottoman princess, the dead girl was a friend of Ikmen's teenage daughter and, the post-mortem indicates, brutally raped before her death.
His investigation takes him deep beyond the innocent surfaces of the victim's life and beneath the modern streets of the city to a world of secret tunnels and cisterns, where people will go to any lengths to keep him from finding the truth . . .
