The last love, is like the last hanging threads of hope; at times dearer than life. Can it ever be forgotten?
Eylül, a young lawyer within the turn of a night must move back to Instanbul from Germany, after her mother's sudden drowning. Eylul's mother was the beautiful successful founder of the prestigious law firm in Istanbul.
As life pulled her in tethers, the demands of her mother's law firm highlighting her unpreparedness, and all she can think is 'how can her mother just drown'; as she discovers an old letter which seems to belong to her mother.
What begins a complex odyssey as she chases after an Izmirli, with one thought: did her mother commit suicide for Izmirli?
Each discovery reveals a bigger and darker whole in a seemingly endless tunnel. As Eylül delves deeper into the mysteries of her mother's past and her love life, it soon becomes unclear, who is Izmirli? Is her mother's past and Eylul's present one of the same, has memory and reality merged into one?
Izmirli is a compelling psychological thriller and romance, and a gripping narrative of personal discovery but also an exploration of the complexities of human relationships.
