Inspecteur Bayard #3

A snowy mountain slope sets the stage for high-altitude intrigue in this third Inspecteur Bayard adventure from HUM!, titled Het Is Hier Fantastisch! The cover by Olivier Schwartz sweeps the eye across a crisp winter scene: two skiers carving down the slope while a figure in the foreground — gloved hand raised, pistol aimed — watches from behind the tree line, lending the whole image a tense, thriller-on-skis energy. It's a beautifully composed, retro-styled tableau that promises Bayard is in for anything but a relaxing holiday.
