Summary
Never fall for your prey....
A thrilling tale of manipulation and deceit about an American private investigator who travels to Turkey to track down the daughter of a wealthy family, unwittingly setting off a sinister plot.
Four children from wealthy families are sent to a strict prestigious boarding school for troubled teenagers. Haunted by the horrors they experience, they vow to disrupt the status quo by all means necessary.
Years later, Tyler is a private investigator with a failing career who has been hired by petrochemical billionaire James Arthur Knight, Jr. to find his runaway daughter, Chana. At a seaside hotel in Turkey, he finds Chana lounging with her three wealthy friends and living with a fake name.
Enthralled by Chana’s shyness and elegance, Tyler decides to keep his discovery to himself, accepting Mr. Knight’s payments while feeding him elusive information and partying with Chana and her friends over wine and raki. One night, when Tyler lets slip his relationship with the American consul, Chana lights up with interest and asks if he can orchestrate a meeting.
With a backdrop of of glitzy ex-pat parties, diplomatic galas, and the gritty underworld of Istanbul, Chana conjures a plot involving the consul that sets into motion a dark chain of events.
Critic Reviews
"A mystery that’s rich in labyrinthine twists and keeps listeners emotionally on edge." —Kirkus Reviews
"Rupert Penry-Jones handles this well-crafted, highly original story with cool objectivity. He carefully portrays four young adults who, as children, spent time in a remedial boarding school for the disturbed progeny of the wealthy. These radicalized trust-fund babies are determined to wreak havoc on the existing social system. With his career in a slump, PI Tyler Sedgewick is hired by the billionaire father of one of them to locate his missing daughter. With a steady diet of diplomatic galas, parties, sex, drugs, and deception, Tyler finds himself in over his head. While Penry-Jones keeps his distance from the action, an Osborne novel never disappoints and constantly defies expectations."' —Kirkus Reviews
