Description: "Author John Christie was feeling unmoored after the end of a distinguished career in journalism. To regain his place in the world, he turned his investigative reporting skills on himself, beginning by going 100 years into the past and to a murder in an ancient land...The Prince of Wentworth Street is a revealing memoir of a boy determined to escape the cocoon his extended family created for him, and the story of an aging man who finds his way back to peace with himself by returning to that blood-soaked hillside in Turkey where his family's story began."--Back cover
