Preferably set in the real world, though it's not a hard requirement.

Fiction or biography are both fine :)

Well shoot. I was going to suggest a sci fi book. The Player of Games by Iain M. Banks

Not a traditional diplomat, but functions as one.

Thank you!

I got a few sci-fi recs already (CJ Cherryh's Foreigner, Arkady Martine's A Memory Called Empire), but I would be happy to hear yours.
