Born in 1887 in the small village of Kozludere, Ahmet is a young Ottoman lieutenant from the Ulaşlı Turkmen clan. While studying in Salonica, he falls deeply in love with H sne, a beautiful young woman whose family will soon be forced to flee their homeland.
As the Ottoman Empire enters its final and most turbulent years, the Balkan Wars shatter their dreams. While Ahmet fights on the battlefields of Kırklareli, L leburgaz, and atalca, H sne joins the endless columns of refugees escaping the fall of Salonica.
Years later, fate reunites them. Together they build a home and welcome two children, Dede and D ne. Just as peace begins to heal old wounds, the First World War erupts, and Ahmet is called once more-this time to Gallipoli.
From the blood-soaked ridges of Kanlısırt to the desperate defenses of Conkbayırı and Anafartalar, Ahmet must lead his men through one of history's fiercest battles while carrying the weight of his family's hopes in his heart.
Inspired by historical events, Wounded Horizons: A Separation Sealed at Gallipoli is an unforgettable historical novel about love, honor, sacrifice, and the price of duty.
