Le Syndrome de Caïn #2

From Soleil's 2007 series comes the second chapter of Le Syndrome de Caïn — "Le Conseil des ombres" — and its cover immediately commands attention. A stern, shaven-headed man wearing a gold crucifix gazes off with quiet, unsettling authority, set against a richly layered background of aged manuscript script and what appears to be a da Vinci anatomical figure, weaving together threads of faith, secrecy, and Renaissance mystery. By Tackian and Mutti, this volume promises a thriller steeped in shadowy councils and hidden knowledge.
