Summary:
Trouble brews beneath the exotically curved towers of Istanbul when the equally exotic and equally curved Elizabeth Lipp recruits her former lover in a scheme to heist the pride of the city's Topkapi museum: a jewel-encrusted dagger. But the job soon turns into a high-tension, high-wire performance when the bumbling fall guy and other amateurs they've hired as help find they'll have to lift their prize while dangling from the museum's vaulted ceiling.
