- Inspired by the true romance of the author's great-great-grandparents, "The Palace of Tears" is a tale of forbidden passion, true love and fate set against the exotic backdrop of 19th century Paris and Istanbul. In a tiny shop in Paris, a French winemaker spies a miniature portrait of a Turkish woman with one blue eye, the other yellow. That night he dreams of her and in the morning abandons both family and country to find her and his destiny.
