It is Istanbul, 1838, and Lefevre, a French archaeologist, has arrived in Istanbul determined to uncover a lost Byzantine treasure. Yashim is hired to investigate him, but when the man turns up dead, there is only one suspect: Yashim himself. Once again, the investigator finds himself in a race against time to uncover the startling truth behind a shadowy secret society dedicated to the revival of the Byzantine Empire, caught in a deadly game deep beneath the city streets, a place where the stakes are high - and betrayal is death.

Really good read and so well researched. I loved the ancient history of Istanbul and it surely made me want to go to Istanbul. Great set of characters too and a gripping story till the very end.

Caught at the Edinburgh meet up. Looks really good, so have ordered the first in the series from the library.
I really enjoyed this book. I thought the characters were great and really liked th way teh plot was linked with recent events in the time the story was happening. The others in the series are available from the library so I'm working my way through them.
Caught at Book Festival meetup, thank you.
Enjoyable but I enjoyed the descriptions of Istanbul more than the plot.
