Delivered into privilege to 1 of the last Ottoman pashas, beautiful, spirited Selva is the brightest jewel in her father's household - until she falls deeply in love with Rafael Alfandari. Though Turkey is definitely a safe haven for Jews, marriage between a high-ranking Muslim female and a Jewish boy is strictly forbidden. Yet young love will not be rejected, and Selva and Rafael defy their parents and marry, fleeing to Paris in hopes of an improved life - only to find themselves caught in the path of the invading Nazis. However in the midst of darkness shines a beacon of desire: A handful of courageous Turkish diplomats, covered only by the tenuous neutrality of their homeland, hatch a daring storyline to spirit the exiled enthusiasts and a huge selection of innocent Jews to protection. Together, they will traverse a war-torn continent, crossing adversary lines and risking everything in a single last, desperate bet for freedom.
