In einer Kalksteinhöhle in Kappadokien wird die Leiche einer Frau gefunden. Über zwanzig Jahre lag sie unentdeckt in dem Höhlensystem. Inspektor Çetin Ikmen kommt aus Istanbul in die archaische Landschaft, um die Ermittlungen zu unterstützen. Er sieht sich mit einer Welt der Legenden, der Lügen und des Aberglaubens konfrontiert, in der die Wahrheit keine große Rolle spielt – Ehre und Intrigen dafür eine umso größere.

Am Ufer des Bosporus wird eine Frau tot aufgefunden. Scheinbar hat sie sich selbst ins Herz gestochen, doch bald wird klar, dass es kein Suizid war. Die Jagd nach dem grausamen Mörder führt Inspektor Ikmen ins Schattenreich der Horrorfans und Satansjünger.

Die Leiche des jungen Mannes sieht aus, als wäre er gestern erst gestorben. Doch der Pathologe schwört, daß der Mann bereits seit Jahren tot ist. Kommissar Ikmen steht vor einem Rätsel - und seine Ermittlungen führen ihn tief in die Geheimnisse der uralten und zugleich so lebendigen Stadt am Bosporus.

Ein kunstvolles osmanisches Gewand, ein Schauspieler mit einem dunklen Geheimnis und zwei rätselhafte Morde: Barbara Nadel verknüpft auf meisterhafte Weise die sinnlichen Traditionen der alten türkischen Kultur mit den Abgründen des modernen Istanbul.

Während die Herbststürme über Istanbul hinwegfegen, grübelt der Inspektor über seinem zweiten Fall. Ein junger Mann wird tot in einer Wohnung in der Nähe des Topkapi-Palastes gefunden. Seltsamerweise hat keiner der Nachbarn ihn jemals das Haus betreten oder verlassen sehen, der einzige Besucher war ein gut gekleideter Armenier mit einem auffälligen Ring. Noch mysteriöser ist allerdings die Tatsache, dass der Körper des Toten übersät ist mit Einstichen von Injektionen und die Muskeln seiner Gliedmaßen offenbar verkümmert sind. Auch waren Türen und Fenster noch vor kurzer Zeit vernagelt. Offenbar wurde der junge Mann wie ein Gefangener gehalten. Aber warum?

Am Ufer des Bosporus wird die Leiche eines jungen Mannes gefunden. Laut Pass handelt es sich um Rifat Berisha, einen Albaner, der schon einige Zeit in Istanbul lebt. Als Kommissar Çetin Ikmen sich auf die Suche nach dem Mörder macht, muß er jedoch feststellen, das Berishas Familie keineswegs an der Aufdeckung des Falles interessiert ist. Im Gegenteil: Schon bald wird Ikmen klar, daß er es mit einer unerbittlichen Blutfehde zu tun hat, die weit zurück in die Vergangenheit reicht.
