Everyone around him was a potential enemy – a traitorous vizier, a jealous wife, or an ambitious son could all have a motive to kill them. Join crime novelist – and expert in all things Sultan – Jason Goodwin, as he takes us on a tour of Istanbul’s ancient spice market, in search of a poison fit to kill a Sultan.
