Actes Sud. Translated from the French by Alison Anderson ;

520 "A French intelligence officer is tasked with tracking
down a former member of the U.S. Special Forces suspected
of drug trafficking during the war in Afghanistan. On his
way to Beirut he shares a night with Mariam, an Iraqi
archaeologist, who is in a race against time to save
ancient artifacts across the Middle East from the
destruction wreaked by ISIS. Woven into these two forceful,
gripping storylines are stylish meditations on humankind's
bellicose history: Hannibal's failed march on Rome ;
Grant's pursuit of the Confederates into rural Virginia;
and Emperor Haile Selassie's swift retreat from Ethiopia.
Each one a turning point in world history, each revealing
a different facet of how nations and individuals face
defeat"--inside flap of front cover.
