Mystery Hard Boiled
It’s the twenty-first century and El Iskandryia — an
alluring metropolis built on seduction, corruption, and
lies — is the double-dealing heart of an Ottoman Empire
that still rules the world. But these days a sense of dread
hangs over El Isk — and over Ashraf Bey, the city’s new
Chief of Detectives. A trial is set to take place, and it’s
up to Raf to decide the case. There’s only one problem: the
suspect is the billionaire father of the woman Raf should
have married. Industrialist Hamzah Effendi is accused of crimes so
horrible that even El Iskandryia wants him eliminated. But
Raf finds that protecting the sensual and impetuous Zara
Quitrimala from the secrets of her father’s past may be
even more dangerous. For Raf must now solve a series of
brutal murders that are somehow connected to the case — and
to Zara. And the closer Raf gets to the truth, the more
elusive the answers become — and the closer he comes to his
own demise...
