It is 1877, when a heartbreaking tragedy leaves Eleanora Cohen marooned in Istanbul during the last days of the Ottoman Empire. But young Eleonora, clever and engaging beyond her years, soon catches the attention of the Sultan's court.
COMMUNITY REVIEWS
strong beginning but weak finish submitted by willow on June 25, 2015, 9:03pm This book has such a fabulous beginning, with the brilliant character of Eleonora, that I found the ending quite unsatisfactory.
