In 1943, the scientific-investigation division of the Third Reich
ordered the assassination of one of its researchers. Then they concealed
all traces of his work. Why?
Now, it is emerging that some witnesses to this disturbing affair have
survived. A strange young woman has appeared to pay her respects at the
murdered scientist’s grave. And the scientist’s discoveries haven’t
completely disappeared either…
In the course of his career, covering wars and criminal affairs around
the world, reporter Sébastian Raives has come to believe that mankind is
one of nature’s mistakes. At the moment, this jaded investigative
journalist is digging into the affairs of Waxon, a powerful
multinational. Through its humanitarian third-world projects, Waxon
presents itself as a model of ecological responsibility. But Sébastien
is intrigued by the magnetic, mysterious India Allen, chief of security
at Waxon, who seems to have a personal agenda that’s strangely at odds
with her position. Why did she ask an engineer to teach her how to blow
up a chemical factory with maximal damage? What sadistic impulses allow
her to rejoice at the deaths of thousands? And where does she get her
infallible instinct for tracking down her prey?
A thriller in four volumes which combines current geopolitical reality with inexplicable supernatural events sprung from the horrors of the Second World War. From the writer of ‘I.R.$’ and the artist from the famous saga, ‘Les Maîtres de l’Orge’.
