"Sous la formule du roman d'aventures frolant la politique-fiction, un beau recit (1978) presque parabolesque sur la violence. En une intrigue intensement conduite, des etres de chair et de sang se battent pour la paix par l'intermediaire d'une societe secrete (d'ou le titre significatif). La finale dramatique peut sembler outree, mais elle est dans la logique meme du recit et du principal protagoniste qui doit violenter la violence. [SDM]."

La finale dramatique peut sembler outrée, mais elle est dans la logique même du récit et du principal protagoniste qui doit violenter la violence."
