| Summary | "Ambrose Lavendale, Diplomat" by E. Phillips Oppenheim is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set against the backdrop of World War I and revolves around the intrigue and tension of the era, particularly focusing on diplomatic relations and espionage. The main character, Ambrose Lavendale, appears to play a significant role in the unfolding events related to the war and some mysterious inventions that have the potential to change its trajectory. The opening of the book introduces the bustling atmosphere of a London bar during wartime. Here, we meet Ambrose Lavendale, an American who becomes intrigued by a seemingly inconspicuous man named Daniel Hurn. This man's peculiar laughter in response to the horrific use of poisonous gas by German forces draws Lavendale's attention, leading to a conversation that reveals Hurn's claim that he can stop the war. As their interaction develops, Lavendale learns more about Hurn's remarkable invention concerning warfare, setting the stage for a thrilling narrative interwoven with elements of mystery, potential betrayal, and the stakes of wartime secrets. The dynamic between Lavendale and the enigmatic Hurn, alongside the advent of compelling characters, suggests an intricate plot filled with suspense and international intrigue.
