The King Prawn-Volume 1 of the Desert Rose Trilogy
A murdered businesswoman. A cartel kingpin. A relentless intelligence officer. A young homicide cop. Four lives bound by secrets, betrayal, and deadly choices.
Rabah, a ruthless cartel mastermind of Arab-Thai descent, rose from Paris's rough streets to command Southeast Asia's most powerful drug and weapons empire built on blood and brilliance. A decade ago, he crushed the Mexican cartels in the Mekong, igniting a war for revenge.
Opposite him stands Lenard, a cold, methodical French intelligence officer shaped by a legacy of power and supremacy. His mission: bring Rabah to justice. But their pasts are intertwined in ways neither suspects, and their feelings toward each other are far more complicated than anyone could expect...
When Nehir, a Turkish businesswoman, Rabah's daughter's mother, and possibly involved in human trafficking, is found murdered, an international investigation thrusts Rabah into the spotlight. Lenard teams up with Turkish authorities, but his motives run deeper than justice.
At the heart of the case is Dolunay, a young homicide officer assigned to assist Lenard during his time in Istanbul. Then, boom-after a drunken mistake, she's unexpectedly forced into an uneasy alliance with Rabah.
As loyalties blur and danger escalates, who is hunter, and who is prey?
The King Prawn is a gripping thriller of power, passion, and betrayal that launches the Desert Rose trilogy.
