It is late winter of 1950 and Safir Turan-an immigrant living a lonely life in Brooklyn, NY-has just learned of her father's death in distant Istanbul when she is contacted by a wealthy American claiming he knows her family.
Senator Weldon Scott takes Safir on a riveting journey to a time before she was born; to the remote and desolate Taurus Mountains of a declining Ottoman Empire wracked by World War I.
Safir struggles with the truth of her past as her world crumbles under the weight of the senator's revelations.
An epic, multilayered story spanning continents and generations, Saint Illuminator's Daughter examines themes of identity, faith, belonging and, ultimately, survival within a compelling, fast-paced narrative.
