In Istanbul - the golden city on the Bosphorus - ancient myths and modern evils are at work...
On a buzzing street in the fashionable district of Beyoglu, a young man drops dead. mit Kavas's death was natural but the autopsy betrays a shocking truth: his last meal was human flesh.
Under desperate pressure from their superiors, Inspector Cetin Ikmen and his colleague Mehmet S leyman begin their most obscure investigation yet. How did mit Kavas, apparently a good, liberal man, come to partake in the greatest taboo of all? Did he act alone? And who was his victim?
Soon they find themselves embroiled in a dark web of underground worlds: of Turkey's old secular elite; a community of squatters; and a new gastronomy scene breaking every boundary. But where does the truth lie?
