Kati Hirschel is the proud owner of Istanbul's only crime bookshop. When the German director of a film starring and old school friend is found murdered in his hotel room, Kati cannot resist the temptation to start her own maverick investigation. After all, her friend is the police's principal suspect and reading all those detective novels must have taught Kati something! A crime story as well as a wonderful book about Istanbul and Turkish society, Hotel Bosphorus is told with humour, social insight and sincerity.
