In this historical thriller inspired by true events, a British espionage plot spirals out of control - with devastating consequences. It’s the aftermath of WWI and imperialist powers jostle for influence in Tehran, capital of Persia, and heart of the Middle East. James Malcolm is a ruthless British spy set on undermining his American and Russian rivals, but when an act of sabotage escalates into an international incident, the kingmaker becomes the pawn. Rose Pearce works in the English Consulate with her friend Ali, a sweet boy of 14.

The settings and characters are so vividly described that I felt I was right there in the story. The book is a reminder of how power and greed can be so devastating to innocent people. It’s a great book for both learning about the history of the world and the human condition in situations of political struggle.
I chose this book because I enjoy reading about different parts of the world and historical fiction.
