Le jeune et richissime Artemis Fowl est le descendant d’une longue lignée de criminels. À seulement 12 ans, il est déjà doté d’une intelligence hors du commun. Il va alors affronter le peuple des Fées, des créatures puissantes et mystérieuses vivant sous terre. Ces dernières pourraient bien être à l’origine de la disparition de son père, survenue 2 ans plus tôt. Pour cela, Artemis est prêt à tout, même à prendre en otage le capitaine Holly Short - une elfe réputée pour sa bravoure.
