The Accidental Spy — Jacqueline George

Not everything is beautiful in Tabriz, as Greg Armstrong starts to discover. After witnessing a covert military operation, the dark underworld of international terrorism begins to engulf him. Only the strange expatriate community of Sabah stands between him and the Security Police. Review A web of espionage and intrigue played out against the gritty background of the Tabrizi oil fields. I loved the antediluvian world of Tabriz, and the variety of characters drawn to work in this bizarre domain. --John Singe, author of My Island Home
