"On an October night in 1931, in the elegant dining room of the Hotel des Bergues, Edith Campbell Berry is celebrating the renewal of her contract as an officer of the League of Nations.  Five years have passed since Edith's triumphant arrival in Geneva, and the idealism of those early grand days has been eroded by a sense of foreboding as the world moves ever closer to another war."
