- Book Synopsis
- Hidden, amidst the vibrant and secretive streets of Istanbul, Turkey, Ahdaf Jalil is safe for the first time in years. A refugee of the Syrian Civil war, Addaf helps others like him make the dangerous, often deadly, crossing to Greece. But when two enemies approach wanting his skills and his loyalty, Ahdaf's fragile balance begins to fracture. On one side, is the alluring and evasive, likely-CA agent Selim Wilson who promises him the world. On the other, are the ghosts that forced Ahdaf out of his home - an ISIS cabal on his doorstep. And they know his secret, one they could kill him for: Ahdaf is a gay man. That is precisely when a handsome stranger sails into his life and makes him want to risk it all. Exhilarating and startlingly contemporary ISTANBUL CROSSING offers an empathetic look into the human struggles of the Syrian refugee crisis.
- About The Author
- Timothy Jay Smith is a multi award winning author, screenwriter and playwright. Istanbul Crossing is his fifth novel. A ceaseless wanderlust has taken him around the world many times. En route, he's found the characters that people his work. Polish cops and Greek fishermen, mercenaries and arms dealers: he hung with them all in an unparalleled international career that had him smuggle banned plays from behind the Iron Curtain, represent the U.S. at the highest levels foreign governments, and stowaway aboard a "devils barge" that landed him in an African jail.
