In all the years she had been an inspector with the Policía Foral, she had never found herself in front of an altar. She had seen photographs and videos during her time at Quantico, but, as her instructor had told her, nothing could prepare you for the sensation of finding an altar. ‘It might be a little space, inside a wardrobe or a trunk; it might occupy an entire room or fit inside a drawer, it doesn’t matter. When you come across one, you’ll never forget it, because this bizarre museum where the killer hoards his trophies is the greatest demonstration of sordidness, perversion and human depravity you can find. However many studies, profiles and behavioural analyses you may have studied, you won’t know what it’s like to look inside a devil’s head until you find an altar.’
from The Invisible Guardian (Baztan Trilogy #1), by Dolores Redondo (trans. Isabelle Kaufeler)

Whether this was fair or not, in the end it was hard to judge the Fourth Crusade—forged and facilitated by Venice and her doge Dandolo—as anything other than a disaster that perverted every principle of the crusading movement: carving out a new Latin state from Christian territory, doing appalling damage to one of the greatest cities in Christendom, dragging the reputation of crusading through the mud and enriching rather than tormenting the Ayyubids.
from Crusaders: The Epic History of the Wars for the Holy Lands, by Dan Jones
