Hissène Habré, the former despot of Chad, had terrorised, tortured, and killed on a horrific scale over eight bloody years in power—all while enjoying full American and Western support.

The human rights lawyer Reed Brody recounts how he and an international team of investigators, legal experts, and victims worked across three continents to unearth evidence and witnesses, petition courts and sceptical governments, and rally public opinion. They faced many obstacles and constant threats. One of Brody's Chadian colleagues was gravely injured in a bomb attack, and another had to seek asylum in the United States. Habré fought back bitterly, drawing on secret bank accounts and extensive political connections to preserve his life of luxurious exile. Yet Brody and his allies ultimately triumphed: Habré became the first former head of state to be convicted of crimes against humanity in the courts of another country. This fast-paced, suspenseful book shows that there is nothing inevitable about the impunity that too often protects the powerful, and even the worst tyrants can be brought to justice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47000827953388,"sku":"9780231202589","price":211.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/8082593482270.jpg?v=1763308122"},{"product_id":"to-catch-a-dictator-by-reed-brody-9780231216562","title":"To Catch a Dictator","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"book-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat does it take to make a dictator answer for his crimes?
