Agatha Christie #10

Based on Agatha Christie's *The Man in the Brown Suit*, this 2005 Emmanuel Proust adaptation brings one of her most adventurous thrillers to the comics page. The cover, by Hugues Maron and Mohamed El Bairi, draws the eye immediately: a sharp-featured young woman in a red jacket stands in the foreground, her expression alert and searching, while a solitary figure in a brown coat stands with his back turned on a dramatic coastal clifftop in the distance. The composition perfectly captures the tension of pursuit and mystery that defines this story.
