james_davis_nicollThe Orient Express (Graham Greene)
Caught up in the prelude to a coming revolution/coup the protagonist goes to great lengths to rescue the rather helpless young woman who is only in trouble because of his previous attempts to help/seduce her.
I'd be a bit critical of the total lack of interest he shows in whether it is a good thing for the current government of wherever to be overthrown but I am too distracted by how he totally abandoned the plucky girl reporter to her fate so he could leg it with the cute girl he is hoping to sleep with.
Wikpedia's synopsis of the novel sounds pretty dire.
