Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: âKemal Kayankaya is the ultimate outsider among hard-boiled private eyes.â
âMarilyn Stasio, The New York Times Book Review
OVER 1 MILLION COPIES SOLD WORLDWIDE
To rescue a kidnapped prostitute, Kemal Kayankaya must face some of Germanyâs most depraved and dangerous criminals. Fortunately, some of them are his friends...
Love is never easyâespecially when your girlfriend is an illegal Thai prostitute who has been kidnapped (again) by a gang of sex traffickers. Fortunately for the hapless fianceÌ, wisecracking gumshoe Kemal Kayankaya is on the case. The son of a Turkish garbage collector, he knows a thing or two about living in the ethnic fringes of the ugliest German city of them all: Frankfurt.
Kayankaya plunges into the cityâs underbelly, where the police donât care if you live or die, and the powerful view an illegal alien as just another paycheck. One Man, One Murder populates its pages with unforgettable characters, whip-smart dialogue, and a connoisseurâs collection of grim details. But it is Arjouniâs dead-on description of contemporary Europeâs racial politics, vacuous nationalism, and so- cial injustice that make his novels rise above the rest.
