Overview

It is the beginning of the 17th century. As the prince, who is certain to become sultan in the future, sets out for the province of Saruhan, a murder is committed in Saruhan. Yusuf, the son of Salih Ağa, one of Saruhan's important figures, is killed in an inn. The judge of Saruhan assigns Selim, a clerk he knows from Istanbul, to solve this murder. Selim's appointment to this task, which led to the execution of the Janissary commander Bekir in Istanbul, does not please the Janissary commander Arif, but he does not have the power to prevent it. On the other hand, the prince and Deli İzzet Pasha, who accompanied him, must solve the murder before arriving in Saruhan.
