Pat'Apouf #13

A diamond caper takes center stage in this charming reprint from Les Éditions du Triomphe, as the rotund, mustachioed Pat'Apouf finds himself splashing about in a marsh, apparently pursuing — or being outwitted by — a nimble young boy perched at the water's edge. The gleaming diamond prominently displayed on the cover tells you everything you need to know about the stakes, and the slapstick energy between the two figures gives this 2018 edition all the playful wit that has made the Pat'Apouf Détective series so endearing.
