Development Pitch
This story is about how some Russian government employees employ their trade-craft for self-aggrandizement. Unwittingly, they change the course of political history. The characters are a mix of smart and funny, experienced and naive, patriotic and self-absorbed.The story has many twists and turns that are guided by a protagonist who is likable without pathos. Tension builds at an ever increasing pace in this espionage thriller. It is a cat and mouse game being played out on the world stage. It is as subtle as the First Lady being a secret agent. Pillow talk anyone?
