His favorite quote:
“The intoxication of triumph.
It's exhilarating, I also had my share of this arrogance.

Why this book?
Because the plot is very gripping,
worthy of an action series.
However, it is inspired by real events.
Because the turnarounds are unpredictable
and keep the reader in suspense, from beginning to end.
Because the characters are all fascinating
and easily identifiable, each of them occupies a specific role and contributes to the creation of a well-organized canvas.
Because the pen of the author is effective.
Thanks to precise descriptions and a language as detailed as it is elegant, the writer knows how to put powerful words at the right time.
The timing is always right.
