Synopsis

There's a city far away... My parents often spoke of it as if it had always been there and always would be... I had seen it in paintings, I had read of it in stories, the richest, most powerful place on earth... the centre of everything. It drew people from every corner of the empire and beyond, hungry for wealth and power, or in some case, more wealth and more power. They were dazzled by its brightness. And like moths drawn to a candle... many were burnt alive by its fire... Tumanbay...

Tumanbay is a fast-paced historical thriller set in the richest, most powerful city on earth. It's a story of slaves, spies, armies, betrayals, assassinations, deserts and plagues...
