Istanbul, 1906. The Ottoman Empire stands on the brink of transformation as political conspiracies and revolutionary movements threaten centuries of imperial rule. Behind the walls of Yıldız Palace, Sultan Abdülhamid II struggles to preserve his authority, while in Macedonia, a young Ottoman officer must choose between loyalty to the Sultan and his secret commitment to the Young Turk movement. Meanwhile, Prince Selahaddin and his family long for freedom within their gilded confinement. As revolution gathers momentum, personal loyalties collide with political ambition, and the fate of an empire becomes inseparable from the lives of those born to rule it. Drawing on family memories and historical research, Ayşe Osmanoğlu brings the twilight of the Ottoman dynasty to life through an intimate portrait of family, duty, and upheaval.
