FROM THE AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR OF EAST OF THE SUN, A POWERFUL
LOVE STORY SET AGAINST THE UNSTABLE AND EXOTIC CITIES OF
CAIRO AND ISTANBUL DURING THE HEIGHT OF WORLD WAR II At twenty-three, Saba Tarcan knows her only hope of escaping
the clamor of Cardiff Bay, Wales, lies in her voice. While
traveling Britain, singing for wounded soldiers, Saba meets
handsome fighter pilot Dom Benson, recovering from burns
after a crash. When Saba auditions to entertain troops in
far-off lands, Dom follows her to London. Just as their
relationship begins to take root, Saba is sent to sing in
Africa, and Dom is assigned a new mission in the Middle
East. As Saba explores Cairo’s bazaars, finding friendship
among the troupe’s acrobats and dancers, Dom returns to the
cockpit once again, both thrilled and terrified to be flying
above the desert floor. In spite of great danger, the two
resolve to reunite. When Saba learns that her position makes her uniquely
qualified for a secret mission of international importance,
she agrees to help the British Secret Service, concealing
her role from Dom. Her decision will jeopardize not only her
safety but also the love of her life. Based on true accounts of female entertainers used as spies
during World War II, Jasmine Nights is a powerful story of
danger, secrets, and love, filled with the colors and sounds
of the Middle East’s most beautiful cities.
