Notes

General Note
A novel.
Description
The scene is Bonn, a small provincial town elevated by the cold war to the artificial status of capital city. The protagonists are British diplomats, their wives, and aspiring German politicians. The time is the recent future. While the Foreign Office is locked in a last desperate battle to enter the Common Market, while the new Germany is being carried away on a rising tide of student-bourgeois nationalism, an aging second secretary has vanished from the British Embassy. He has taken with him, apparently, official files whose disclosure could ruin Britain's chances at the negotiating table.
