I picked this up in our mobile library not having come across a Turkish detective series before.

Inspector Cetin İkmen arrives at a factory manufacturing fakes when a boy they are trying to take into custody blows himself up. Amongst the ruins of the factory are found a map of the London Underground and evidence that the web of crime extends beyond the manufacture of fake goods. Inspector İkmen is asked by his superiors and British police to go undercover to flush out the fundamentalists who they think may be thinking of trying to launch an attack in London. Having assumed a new identity and lied to his estranged wife and his children about his mission, he sets off on a terrifying journey made by many illegal immigrants to the UK to undertake his undercover role.

I couldn’t put this one down and I’m looking forward to starting the second one I picked up.

I met a grumpy little tortie on my travels recently. She was a bit coy about a stroke, rolling around as if she wanted a cuddle and shying away with a frown when I approached.
