  • "The Turkish sultan assigns the task of finding a murderer to Yashim the eunuch."
  • "When the Ottoman Empire of 1836 is shattered by a wave of political murders that threatens to upset the balance of power, eunuch intelligence agent Yashim Togalu conducts an investigation into clues within the empire's once-elite military forces."
  • "In 1836 krijgt de in Istanbul wonende eunuch Yashim opdracht de daders te vinden van de moord op vier officieren van een legereenheid en daar blijft het niet bij."
  • "Yashim investigates a series of killings in the sultan's court, honing in on the Janissaries, the marginalized former imperial guards who have become ruthless mercenaries and may have murdered in an attempt to regain power."
  • ""It is 1836. Europe is modernizing, and the Ottoman Empire must follow suit. But just as the Sultan plans a series of radical reforms, a concubine is strangled in the palace harem and a young cadet is found butchered in the streets of Istanbul. These murders threaten the subtle balance of power in the Sultan's court. Who is behind them? Only one investigator can find out: Yashim Togalu, a man both gifted and near-invisible in this world. You see, Yashim is a eunuch." ---COVER."@en
  • ""It is 1836. Europe is modernizing, and the Ottoman Empire must follow suit. But just before the Sultan announces sweeping changes, a wave of murders threatens the fragile balance of power in his court. Who is behind them? Only one intelligence agent can be trusted to find out: Yashim Lastname ... a eunuch. He leads us into the palace's luxurious seraglios and Istanbul's teeming streets, and leans on the wisdom of a dyspeptic Polish ambassador, a transsexual dancer, and a Creole-born queen mother. And he introduces us to the Janissaries. For 400 years, they were the empire's elite soldiers, but they grew too powerful, and ten years ago, the Sultan had them crushed. Are the Janissaries staging a brutal comeback?"--Publisher description."@en
