This story reinvents the core of classic crime fiction with a fresh, modern voice. With its layered plot, strong female leads, and cultural depth, ABRAKADABRA speaks to both lovers of mystery and fans of literary fiction.

A stage. A thousand eyes. And one vanished man...

What begins as a dazzling illusion show at the Zorlu Performing Arts Center soon takes a darker turn.

During a spectacular performance, the renowned magician Edi makes a volunteer disappear before the eyes of a stunned audience.

But when the man returns, a shocking surprise awaits the room—one that changes everything.

Chief Inspector Umay Kara follows a trail through buried secrets, stolen identities, and a dangerous international art smuggling network.

Each clue reveals a deeper mystery, and in the end, we’re left to wonder: is the greatest illusion of all... the truth itself?

About the author

Hümeyra Kaya, the Turkish writer, began her literary journey at a young age by writing short stories, essays, and short theater scripts. After studying Turkish Language and Literature, she further refined her craft and contributed to various local newspapers as well as literary, cultural, and arts magazines.

Her first book, "Sera Hatun/Sürgün Prenses" (Lady Sera/Princess in Exile), was published in Germany in 2012. A distinctive feature of her works is the way she masterfully blends the social, cultural, and historical elements of the European cities she has lived in since childhood with traces of Turkish culture, art, and literature. Initially incorporating subtle crime elements into her novels, which focused on love, biography, and adventure, she later emphasized these aspects more strongly and transitioned into writing crime fiction.

Hümeyra Kaya continues to write new books.
