October Diplomat is a tale of forbidden love wrapped in international intrigue. In the course of 12 days in October, an American intelligence agent falls in love with a Vietnamese spy who helps him untangle a Chinese general’s plot to seize Vietnam's offshore oil and assassinate China’s president.

In this riveting thriller, the American agent undertakes an impossible mission: he must discover the secret details of the invasion, foil the assassination, and prevent a conflict between warships of the United States and China from escalating into a third world war. In midst of these crises, his lover is kidnapped, and he has to rescue her from China's embassy before she is taken to Beijing and executed.

Great book

Wonderful story and great narration. Spies, love, suspense--'what's not to like? Even "God incidents." Listen to the audio or read the book to learn what they are.
