Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Istanbul police commissioner Mehmet Özakin's former university mate Yunus, now a restaurant chain owner, asks him discretely to look for German tourist Anja Sonntag, who is later found murdered in the city's ancient cisterns. Flanked by Mustafa and Anja's best friend, unshakable German newspaper correspondent Monika Adler, Özakin investigates the case, which proves to tie in with country bakery daughter Kadriye's mysterious turning up at his home to ask help and sudden disappearance. Next to Anja's regular bathing resort hotel in Marmaris, to deputy Mustafa's delight, where animators bitterly disagree how to handle frisky female tourists. More murders follow and even an attempt on Mehmet's own life. Written by KGF Vissers |
