A Kemal Kayankaya Mystery
A distressed artist comes to Kayankaya for help. His Thai girlfriend has been kidnapped. Kayankaya's raised eyebrow brings protestations of love. He confronts obstructive racist officials, corrupt cops and some of Germany's most depraved and dangerous criminals in his trawl through the immigration offices and brothels of Frankfurt where it seems young women fugitives and asylum seekers are disappearing into the Frankfurt night.
