A Chemical Prison

Inspector etin Ikmen and forensic pathologist Arto Sarkissian have been friends since childhood and their work together in Istanbul s criminal justice system has only served to cement their friendship. When they re both called to a flat to investigate the death of a twenty-year-old there is no reason to think their relationship will alter. The case, however, is a strange one. Ikmen learns from the neighbours that they have never seen the boy enter or leave the flat. The only visitor they're aware of is a solitary, well-dressed Armenian. Stranger still is that the limbs of the body are atrophied, and the man seems to have been kept prisoner inside this gilded cage. But why? And for how long? And what is it, wonders etin Ikmen, that s making his old friend Arto, himself an Armenian, so uncomfortable about the case?
