Les Quatre de Baker Street #4

The fourth volume of Les Quatre de Baker Street arrives with a moody, atmospheric cover by David Etien, where the imposing silhouette of Sherlock Holmes — pipe in hand — looms over a young street urchin clutching a newspaper, flanked by two other children and a fox against a rain-washed London backdrop. The subtitle "Les Orphelins de Londres" sets a fittingly melancholy tone, promising a tale rooted in the forgotten corners of Victorian London. Writers Olivier Legrand and Jean-Blaise Djian continue to weave their world of young Baker Street irregulars with real tenderness and atmosphere.
