Description
'I'm a Jewish kid, born and bred on Whitechapel Road - the son of a tailor - and I know a stitch-up when I see one.'
1854. Ben Canaan is a troublesome 21-year-old getting up to mischief in the East End with his band of fellow Good-for-Nothings. But when a shocking discovery turns Ben's life upside-down, he journeys halfway across the world to Constantinople, capital of the Ottoman Empire, on the eve of the Crimean War.
Ben is pulled into the hunt for a seemingly unstoppable serial killer. In the process, he uncovers a deadly conspiracy that threatens to change not just his life, but the course of history itself.

Murder in Constantinople is less a murder mystery (as I’d assumed), and more a fast-paced adventure story - utterly far-fetched, but with enough charm and cheeky winks to the reader to get away with it. Telling a rather unlikely tale of the Jewish son of a tailor who has to flee the country and chooses to find the love of his life, previously thought dead, in Constantinople, uncovering all sorts of major geopolitical shenanigans. And why not. Good fun romp that shot by with hope for a follow-up
