| Artemis Fowl is a thirteen year old criminal genius from a wealthy family. Artemis has had to maintain that wealth ever since his father disappeared in Russia, and one of his previous schemes to restore the family fortune involved him with a LEPrecon office named, Captain Holly Short, the first female to be accepted on the fairy police force. Despite his seemingly callous attitude toward other people, he hasn't stopped looking for his father, and when he receives a ransom message from the Mafia, he's determined to go to Russia and rescue his father. Due to some unforeseen difficulties, he is forced to enlist his previous opponents, the LEPrecon and their clever but sarcastic technician, Foaly. In exchange, Artemis must find the source of some materials that are being smuggled into the Lower Elements and used for uprisings. | ||
