Lady S. #13

Against a moody green-tinged Paris skyline — the Eiffel Tower glowing in the distance — a black-clad, masked figure commands the rooftop foreground while two men scramble urgently behind her. Philippe Aymond's cover for this thirteenth volume of Lady S. perfectly captures the series' blend of espionage tension and urban atmosphere, with the title character's cool, authoritative pose radiating quiet menace. Fans of sleek European spy thrillers will find this 2017 Dupuis entry a compelling addition to the series.
