Reviews

"Skillfully blends a hard-boiled whodunit with SF and alternate history.... Grimwood makes his imagined world feel real."--"Publishers Weekly"

Ex-policeman Ashraf Bey (Effendi; Pashazade) accepts a job protecting the emir of Tunis, who happens to be his estranged father, from possible assassination. With revolution threatening to explode throughout northern Africa, Bey becomes more and more enmeshed in the politics he despises, finding himself seeking answers to his past and to his present in the fabled city of El Iskandrya. Grimwood evokes the sights and sounds of a Middle East that might have been in this elegant blend of exotic fiction and detective story, which belongs in most libraries.
