About the book
Iran, 1971. Four hundred guests are to be received in a tent city built in a desert, and every service required to do it — the flowers, the freight, the interpreters, the motorcades, the linen — now has a printed code and a published price. Aurelia Fanshawe is forty-three, is sent because nobody senior wishes to go, and is expected to be decorative on an allowance that does not exist. She spends eight months establishing who is actually paying for the British presence. The answer is on four delivery notes. And in November she is asked a question about a certificate signed in 1964, and answers it truthfully, and the truthful answer finishes a man of fifty-eight.
