THE LAST ROSE OF ISTANBUL
Giorgio Astori, ex manager of a multinational, looking for a job since a couple of years and divorced since few months, is employed, for managing its Turkish subsidiary, by Antares, a new, still small but fast growing industrial group operating in the field of biotechnologies. Ali Kamat, ex member of a Marxist-Leninist revolutionary group, passed, after several painful vicissitudes, to a ramified Islamic organization devoted to terrorism, is trained, in Afghanistan and in the United States, in view of a sensational attack to be launched against the western world. Two men, both marked by a trail of misadventures, to whom a chance of redemption is offered. Their roads intersect in Istanbul where, however, Songül, the new, brilliant, leggy assistant of Astori comes into play.
