Mordkommission Istanbul: Der Preis des Lebens

OPIS

Commissioner Mehmet Özakin is almost relieved that a purse-snatcher frees him from shopping all over Istanbul with his wife. It also puts him near the spot of a car explosion which kills the driver, newspaper reporter Ismet Baydar, who was digging into real estate corruption, yet the press prefers the more spectacular, albeit unfounded terror theory. While private and professional motives are investigated and informers are disproved, one is stabbed to death on her way to the precinct: Laila Kaleci, an employee of Dr. Fatih Arman's Antalya private clinic, who met Ismet just before and nearby the bombing. There Mehmet stumbles onto an elaborate cover-up, which somehow involves Baydar's widow and editor, rich German tourist Wagner and penniless shepherds like Sedar Gül.
