Graveyard Eyes has these things, plus a concentration on character and place that is the strength of Chacko’s novels. Meet Inspector Onur Levent as he follows a trail of blood and money up the social ladder to its international ending on an island in the Sea of Marmara. It’s one thing to write about the rich and famous, and another to understand them. Chacko, who lives in Istanbul, is one of the few people who can take the reader into a world that in its own way is as private as the harems of the Ottoman sultans. 5 people found this helpful.

Graveyard Eyes - David Chacko. Even with his eyes accustomed to low light, he had trouble making his way through the front room without meeting furniture. Part one: The evil eye. Visualization. He was sure it would go easy. He bumped the corner of the dining table on the right, but soundlessly. It was good the alarm system’s LED display put out a peep of yellow light when armed.

Details (if other): Cancel. Thanks for telling us about the problem. Onur Levent by. David Chacko (Goodreads Author).

David Chacko I write mystery, espionage and historical stories-ones that could be true, are true and will be true. They are among the best.

David Chacko (Author). Where he's born doesn't mean a lot except that's part of what he brings to the work. More about David Chacko.

The torture and murder of a prominent businesswoman launches a police investigation that ruffles the collar of the gigantic city of Istanbul. Inspector Levent, the man the department calls when discretion is demanded, uses all his skills to make his way through a maze of sex and hot money, obscured at every turn by the realities of power. When he reaches the pinnacle of society, the discoveries that he makes provide a scintillating top-down view of Turkey, the Moslem country on the verge of entry into the EU.
  • I have a fondness for mysteries set in foreign locals. This is the second book in a 3 book series featuring Inspector Levant of Istanbul. I probably would have gone to the first book of the series if I had realized it. It is a fairly good mystery - more of a police procedural than a thriller. Even though you know where he is going fairly early on as the identity of the killer is apparent, he keeps the pace moving. I particularly like that the author avoids impossible feats of daring-do and improbable coincidence to make the story move forward. This e-book version was pretty well done with only minor editing errors.

    I'm not sure about the rest of you but I'm becoming a bit disenchanted with some of the 99 cent self published books due to the need of serious editing on most of them. I also simply refuse to buy an e-book when they charge the same, and sometimes more, for the e-version than the paperback. It has stopped me from purchasing books by authors I want to read. This was offered with a good discount from the paperback version - about $2. For that you get a novel from an established author serviced by a competent editor.
    I will probably purchase the next in this series but not right now.

  • Not as good as Devil's Feather, but good. I really like Inspector Levent and wish there were more books in the series. Nicely written, good humor thrown in and the feel of Istanbul and its people. This was more about a chase to get the villain than about descriptions of Istanbul, but still interesting.

  • Workmanlike thriller with an exotic setting, but no sense of time and place. Writing is serviceable, for the most part, with occasional lapses; characters are flat cutouts borrowed from fifty years of better writers. It is an OK read, if you have run out of Olen Steinhauer or Donna Leon or Henning Menkell and are waiting around for them to publish. Don't know if it is an ebook-specific problem or not, but a couple of paragraphs in the first third of the book are gibberish. NYTimes ad states "Nobody Knows Istanbul Like Inspector Levent." Perhaps. But he isn't sharing. Other than street names, the book could be set in any large city; no feel for life in Istanbul, the culture or the people. OK read, but only when you have nothing else.

  • My first David Chacko book. Gripping and superbly written. If you like Michael Connelly's books, as do I, you will love Graveyard Eyes.
