Mortensens mondiale mysteries #1

The opening chapter of Mortensens Mondiale Mysteries arrives in Dutch with this striking first volume, De Rode Robijn, by Lars Jakobsen. The cover drops us straight into the tension: a figure in a dark coat and red sash clutches a briefcase while bursting upward through a splintering wooden trapdoor, shards of wood flying as warm amber light floods from below. It's a wonderfully dramatic image that sets a globe-trotting mystery mood right from the start.
