We report the discovery of an extremely red object (ERO) in a medium-deep
ISOCAM extragalactic survey. The object is also a radio source. Subsequent VLT
NIR spectroscopy revealed a prominent Halpha line giving a redshift of 1.5. We
present the spectrum and photometric data points and discuss evidence that ISO
J1324-2016 is a quasar harbouring a significant amount of very hot dust.
