The Negotiator (15)

Ten years after he was involved in a devastating terrorist incident, former US diplomat Mason Skiles has found a new calling as a mediator in Boston. He is unexpectedly drawn back into the fold by CIA Agent Donald Gaines to oversee the exchange of a kidnapped American operative and a terrorist leader in 1982 Beirut. Unable to refuse, Mason travels to Lebanon, where he meets cultural attache Sandy Crowder, who will help him navigate the corridors of power in a territory plagued by violence.
