We think of terrorism as a relatively modern phenomenon used by fringe political and religious groups, but The Lessons of Terror demonstrates that it is a practice that has existed since time immemorial, and has been employed by national armies as well as extremists. Carr's exploration of two thousand years of terrorism reveals the tactic's consistently self-defeating nature: Far from prompting submission, it only stiffens enemy resolve, and never leads to long-term success or peace. Carr provides a critical historical context for understanding not only individual terrorist acts today, but the Middle East conflict as well.

Thinking that he had glimpsed the face of Evil as a witness to atrocities committed on the innocent during WWII, Lankester Merrin lost his faith in his fellow man and the Almighty. He renounced his vocation, and is now an archaeologist in Africa. A collector of rare comes to him with an odd request. An old Christian Byzantine church has been unearthed in Kenya, surprisingly intact, as if it were buried right after its completion. Merrin is asked to find an ancient relic hidden within the church before a British expedition can. Interested, Merrin agrees to take the job. Beneath the church, something much older and malevolent sleeps, waiting to be awoken. The blood of innocents flows freely, but the horror has only just begun. In the place where Evil was born, Merrin will finally see its true face.

"New York, juin 1897. Une épouse éplorée d'un diplomate espagnol engage la détective Miss Sara Howard pour lui venir en aide : sa petite fille a disparu ... Immédiatement, l'équipe de Lazlo Kreizler se reconstitue autour de Sara, et de déductions en analyses, le profil psychologique du kidnappeur apparaît peu à peu sur leur grand tableau noir. Se dresse progressivement le portrait d'un être dont les mobiles ne sont pas politiques, d'une personnalité en proie à une étrange perversion, d'un tueur d'enfants ayant toutes les apparences de la normalité.
