Effendi: The Second Arabesk

ISBN: 0743202856
Author: Jon Courtenay Grimwood
Description:
Among many other things, Ashraf Bey is a fugitive from the US justice system (definitely); son of the Emir of Tunis (possibly); and chief of detectives in the El Iskandryian police force (apparently). Small wonder that he's a little confused... Raf's ex-fiance Zara still doesn't want to see him, so she says. His nine-year-old niece is busy doing things with computers that are strictly illegal. And when the city suddenly starts to fall apart and Zara's father is accused of mass-murder, Raf begins to learn the true cost of loyalty... Ashraf Bey must become both saviour and avenger. It's not an easy trick, but someone has to do it...
