review 1: I think I need a break from these books but they are an addictive series. It sheds light on Turkish culture as well as geography.This one highlighted South East Turkey. Though Barbara is not an expert and should not be taken as such I enjoy how the country of Turkey is woven into the stores. Ikmen is great character. In this one he lost his son Bikmen. Not reading these in order but now on to the next!
review 2: A drug lord escapes from prison leaving a trail of corpses and flees to the East near the Syrian border. Ikmen stays in Istanbul following up clues while Suleyman is dispatched to the countryside which is rife with clan violence and the PKK separatist movement. While away from Istanbul Suleyman meets a remarkable woman police officer and also deals with... more the merging of faiths in the countryside. Nadel also introduces us to yet another interesting sect or belief involving snakes. Lots of action in this one and there's a personal gut shot once again to Ikmen. Nadel even manages to bring the American Army in Iraq into the plot. One of her best yet. less
