The Honorary Consul by Graham Greene

4.0

Another excellent book by Greene, this time focused on a political kidnapping in Argentina, a triangle among an alcoholic "honorary consul", his wife (a former prostitute), and his friend/her doctor and lover, who has made a deal with the kidnappers in order to help his own imprisoned father. As always, some deep religious overtones, and a great deal about relationships and ideals. Fast-paced, well narrated, thought-provoking.
