“Destiny’s Red String,” written by Yasemin Candemir and published by Müptela Yayınları, is a strong contender for the best detective-thriller novel in recent years. Although the book originates from a Turkish author, it has gained international recognition due to its characters and the locations where the events unfold. With its finely woven plot, the book promises to bring a fresh breath to the world of detective fiction.
“Destiny’s Red String” emerges with a narrative structure that will keep the reader breathlessly engaged at every moment, seemingly proving that all the stories we experience, and the random victories we encounter, are not coincidental but rather the result of invisible red threads that are attached to us from the moment of our birth.
What will elevate the book to its deserved place in the detective fiction world is the author’s brilliant narrative, keeping the reader’s attention alive until the very last page.
Is poisonous evil genetic?
Journalist and author Yasemin Candemir’s book, published by Müptela Yayınları during the pandemic period, takes the reader on a bewitching journey, from burial masks to shamanism, the invisible presence of the red string to Kabbalah and Chinese mythology. It is a suspenseful journey that makes the reader feel that the world is entrusted to wizards and demons. The journey, starting with people who live at the bottom of Maslow’s pyramid, unable to transition to the stages of belonging, love, and acceptance, extends to proving that sadists, as defined by Prof. Paulhus, and poisonous evil are genetic.
Prof. Dr. Delroy Paulhus is a psychology professor at the University of British Columbia in Canada, famous for his studies on understanding the “bad people” within us.
The “Sorcerer,” who meticulously plans serial murders but finds himself entangled in unplanned love, describes his transformation with these words: “He was now a captive of a whisper. It had first appeared in his mind with muted voices, then slowly took over his entire body. The death of his daughter, his wife’s imprisonment, created a tingling impulse in his arms and legs during the process. It fed on insults and grew. It spread to his legs, arms. It became a knot in his throat over time. He was patient. He waited, waited. Finally, he wanted to surrender his life to it. The name of this whisper was Revenge. He had always yielded to everything, even to the greatest sorrows. He began a new life by tearing out mercy and conscience from within him…”
