Höken #1/1958

In the dusty frontier of 1958, a newly built dam tames a wild river—bringing safety to settlers but sparking tension among gold miners downstream who now struggle to wash their claims.

With cunning and silence, he moves through shadows, testing loyalty and fate in a game where one misstep could mean the end.
