About this listen
Sent undercover by Britain’s famed yet clandestine Temporal Agency to Istanbul, Detective Sir Seaton Begg and Doctor Sinclair are on the hunt for the Red King, the leader of a secretive group of assassins who are plotting to change the shape of the world. At the same time, the nascent Nazi forces are also in Istanbul, for their own reasons. Begg and Philips are thrust into a city that is in transition from the ancient to the modern, reflecting the state of the world in the early 1930s, and they are hard pressed on all sides by assassins and betrayals. Yet, one ally has emerged, an enemy from the past, the dreaded albino Monsieur Zenith, Begg’s nemesis.
Michael Moorcock, hailed as one of the “fifty greatest British writers since 1945” by Time, brings his masterful storytelling to this gripping tale, weaving elements of fantasy, action, and adventure into a thrilling tapestry. The Albino’s Secret is a must-read for those who revel in the thrill of the chase and the allure of the unknown.

Critic reviews
"Golden Voice Narrator Nicholas Boulton dives into this alternate-history adventure. Sir Seaton Begg and Dr. Sinclair Philips are metatemporal detectives—gumshoes who solve crimes in many different worlds. This installment is set in 1930s Europe, where the pair are seeking the Red King, a group of assassins who are committing murders throughout Istanbul. Boulton’s stentorian tones echo throughout underground caverns, blown-up buildings, and dark alleys ranging from Turkey to Germany and beyond. As Begg and Philips team up with old friends and even older enemies, searching far and wide for the criminals, Boulton’s performance never waivers. Perfect for Sherlock Holmes fans."
