A killer with means but no motive, and the body count is rising! A man is found dead in a hotel room, a single stab wound in his heart. Could he be a victim of the 'Peeper'? The body of the man is delivered to forensics, but it is entirely clean. Has someone tampered with it? Meanwhile a young carpet dealer, on the brink of a huge sale, is found dead in the mangled remains of his Jeep. The deal would have made him -- the carpet he wanted to sell used to belong to Lawrence of Arabia. Inspector Cetin Ikmen discovers that the young man was hiding a deadly secret!
