The gripping Ikmen mysteries by Barbara Nadel serve as the inspiration for BBC Two's sensational eight-part TV crime drama series, "The Turkish Detective." Set in the dark and mysterious streets of Istanbul, this captivating series delves into a world of magic, crime, and intrigue.
When a newborn baby is found drowned in the shallow waters of the Golden Horn, the entire city is thrown into chaos. All-out warfare threatens to erupt between rival criminal gangs, as they vie for control and power. Inspector Kerim Gürsel is assigned to the case, and he knows that he must tread carefully. DNA tests reveal that the baby's father is Görkan Paşahan, Istanbul's most feared Mafia boss.
However, the identity of the infant's mother remains a mystery. Meanwhile, Çetin İkmen and Mehmet Süleyman attend the winter festival known as Bocuk Gecesi, held on the darkest night of the year. During the festival, they witness a magic trick whereby a young man, Emir Kaya, disappears. İkmen is determined to investigate how the illusion took place, while Süleyman embarks on a tortuous hunt for Emir Kaya, which exposes a harrowing tale of depravity, betrayal, and corruption.
In this world, the bloodline of a child is worth killing for, and everything has its price. Barbara Nadel's novels are praised for their complex and beguiling nature, combining vividly colored scene setting with deliciously tortuous plots. Inspector İkmen is one of modern crime fiction's true heroes, complex yet likeable, and the city he inhabits, Istanbul, is just as fascinating.
"The Turkish Detective" is a must-watch for anyone who loves crime drama, mystery, and the darker side of humanity. With its stunning visuals, compelling characters, and intricate plotlines, this series promises to keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
