When they're both called to a flat to investigate the death of a twenty-year-old, there is no reason to think their relationship will alter. The case, however, is a strange one. Ikmen learns from the neighbours that they have never seen the man enter or leave the flat. The only visitor they're aware of is a solitary, well-dressed Armenian. Stranger still is that the limbs of the body are withered, and the victim seems to have been kept prisoner inside a gilded cage. What is it that's making Ikmen's old friend Arto, himself an Armenian, especially uncomfortable about the case?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat readers are saying about \u003ci\u003eA Chemical Prison\u003c\/i\u003e:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e'I cannot get enough of her \u003cb\u003ewell written stories and addictive characters\u003c\/b\u003e'\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e'\u003cb\u003eThe descriptions of the city and its disparate and cosmopolitan groups of inhabitants are fascinating, as are the historical insights into Ottoman history and habits'\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e'\u003cb\u003eGripping\u003c\/b\u003e from start to finish'\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Headline Book Publishing, Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47121823498480,"sku":"9780755386963","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780755386963_p0.jpg?v=1763636440","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780755386963","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
