A gloomy cloud has descended upon the seven-hilled city, seven victims have taken their last breath...
An extraordinary murder committed in the historical peninsula prompts Chief Inspector Nevzat to take action. The murderer left messages that he wanted to be deciphered through the body of the victim, in whose palm he left an antique coin. Victims who were part of the same murder ritual follow one after another; all the victims have a coin in their hands, and each one is left in front of a historical structure from the time of an emperor who lived in the city's brightest era. The common characteristic of the victims is their betrayal of Istanbul. So what is the characteristic of the murderer?
We were looking at each other and at those we had lost along with our city.
Byzantium, Constantinople and Istanbul... Even though its owners and residents change, acquire new names and assume different characters, there is one thing that does not change in the historical peninsula: its ageless beauty. Ahmet Ümit focuses on this beauty, which is now under threat, in his Istanbul Memory and tries to revive the awareness of Istanbulites with the historical information he conveys while hypnotizing the reader with his high-tension detective story.
We were looking at the city from the sea. Istanbul was in fog... The sea in fog... Our boat in fog. The minarets of Sultanahmet were visible, the dome of Hagia Sophia, the towers of Topkapi Palace. The city seemed as if it had never been plundered, destroyed, or polluted. Like a dream that appeared for a moment before sunrise... Like a magical cloud... Like a fairytale image... Like a newly founded city... Like a fresh start... Young, hopeful, beautiful...
