Summary
While working in Washington, DC, in 1984 as the press secretary for Congressman Hamilton Fish Jr., Pari Forood gets a phone call from her father. Her 17-year-old Iranian cousin has been drafted during the Iran/Iraq war. He must flee from Iran or face an almost certain death. Joining a cast of international characters that include Pakistani black market passport dealers, members of Francois Mitterrand's inner political sanctum, influential committee members on Capitol Hill, and INS agents here in the United States, Forood uses her ties in Washington to help extricate her young cousin, whom she has not seen in 14 years.
