Our story begins in the autumn of 1654, some two years after the Elder Queen Mother was murdered in her bedroom. This was the time when Cromwell governed England as Lord Protector, Cardinal Mazarin held sway over the fortunes of France in the name of the young King Louis XIV and in India, Prince Aurangzeb plotted the overthrow of his father Shah Jahan, whilst in far off China, the disconsolate population were bracing themselves for life under the Manchurian yoke. Meanwhile, at the Imperial Ottoman Palace, Turhan Sultan ruled supreme as undisputed Queen Mother and her son Mehmet IV, the emperor, was nearly fourteen years old. But did Royal Mother and Imperial son choose the wrong man for the office of Grand-Vezier?
