The Diplomat - Saját képpel.

Összefoglaló

The Diplomat is the story of a diplomatic mission to Moscow and Iran in 1946. Lord Essex, ace British negotiator who works over the heads of embassies, is trying to talk the -Russians out of supporting a revolution in the province of Azerbaijan. His objectives: to safeguard British oil in Iran, check Russian expansion, keep a friendly government in power in Teheran. Cagey operator though he is, Essex has been careless enough to select as his assistant a man he has never seen before, Geologist Ivre MacGregor, an uncommunicative Scot who grew up in Iran. It is a choice that plagues and defeats him. Mac not only sympathizes with the revolution and gives the Russians a bill of health; he also cops sophisticated Kathy Clive from under the very nose of Essex, who had her all earmarked for himself. At the end, Mac's hope for civil war in Iran is somewhat dashed, but he has just to fight and Kathy is his.
