The English crime novelist, Charles Latimer, is in Istanbul when he hears that the body of a famous criminal, Dimitrios, has been found in The Bosphorus. In order to garner some background information for his new book, Latimer decides to find out more about Dimitrios who has been in most parts of Europe at one time or another. As Latimer uncovers the trail of Dimtrios’s wanderings, it becomes apparent that Dimitrios is not actually dead and that Latimer’s life is in danger.
