Alfa #10

A group of serious-looking intelligence figures sits around a conference table, all eyes fixed on a projected image of a smiling young man and woman at what appears to be a graduation ceremony — a disquieting contrast between that moment of celebration and the tense, shadowy CIA briefing room surrounding it. The title Leugens ("Lies") sets the mood perfectly for this Belgian spy thriller from the Alfa series, with Jigounov and Mythic delivering a cover that quietly crackles with intrigue. Published by Le Lombard in 2007, this tenth dossier promises the kind of layered, intelligence-world drama that makes the Alfa series such a compelling read.
