Ils vont dès lors veiller sur ce trésor de guerre, ardemment convoité par diverses factions. Nous voilà ne raconte pas seulement les tribulations d'un Maréchal en rupture de tombe à travers trois décennies. C'est aussi la chronique ravageuse d'une époque et d'une génération parcourues par les répliques du séisme soixante-huitard, de 1973 à 2007. On y croisera quelques brebis échappées du Larzac, des forts en thème et des forts en gueule, une Islandaise aux yeux de banquise et un Argentin désargenté, des apôtres du président Mao devenus champions de l'Occident chrétien, des enfileuses de perles en plastique et des fumeurs de joints, des idéaux en berne et des idées en l'air, des renégats, des missionnaires, quelques gardes mobiles et un garde-barrière, et aussi une femme qui rit. On y rencontre Samuel, enfant perdu, et ses parents Paul et Lena, couple central du roman, qui essaient d'inventer un amour résistant aux maladies du siècle. » -- 4e de couvLes aventuriers du cercle: 3, Opération Désert de la mort
