Publisher's Synopsis
Valerie de Chavannes, a financier's daughter, summons Kayankaya to her Frankfurt villa and hires him to find her missing 16-year-old daughter, who is alleged to be with an older man posing as an artist. It seems like a simple case: an upper class girl with a thirst for adventure. Then Kayankaya is hired to act as bodyguard to an author a publisher believes is under threat. Malik Rashid has written a novel about attitudes towards homosexuality in an Arabic country, and could be vulnerable to attacks by religious fanatics at the Frankfurt Book Fair.
