But Ferrer is Washington's man, a firm anti-Communist, the recipient of many favors from the CIA and with carefully cultivated connections in Congress.

Into this volatile political drama comes the new US ambassador, a bright, courageous young woman - with a secret in her past that makes her vulnerable to the CIA. Julia Savage's "diplomatic immunity" is shattered as the opposition turns into open revolution and a passionate love affair places her at the center of dangerous intrigue.
