Les Arcanes du Midi-minuit #4

A moody, atmospheric cover sets the tone for this fourth volume in the French series Les Arcanes du Midi-Minuit, subtitled L'Affaire du Moulin. Three figures — a young woman, a man in a coat, and another companion — are drawn together against a misty backdrop featuring a looming manor and what appears to be a windmill shrouded in fog. The illustration carries a wonderful blend of mystery and gothic unease that makes this 2005 Soleil release a compelling addition to the series.
