Happy Birthday, Turk! by Jakob Arjouni

When a Turkish worker is stabbed to death in Frankfurt's red light district, Kemal Kayankaya, a Turkish German private investigator, is hired by the murdered man's wife to find his killer. With first-hand experience of the resentment directed against foreigners in his now-native Germany, Kayankaya is plunged into an uncomfortably personal mesh of drug addiction, prostitution and police cover-ups as he nears the truth behind the Turkish worker's death.
Jakob Arjouni is the author of the celebrated Kayankaya novels featuring a Turkish detective in Frankfurt. Titles include Happy Birthday Turk, More Beer, One Man One Murder and Kismet. Magic Hoffmann, a standalone novel was shortlisted for the IMPAC Award. His last novel, Brother Kemal, was published by No Exit Press in August 2013.
