Shelton & Felter #2

Aboard a ship on the open sea, this second Shelton & Felter adventure — "Het spook van de Adriatic" — promises nautical intrigue from the very first glance. Jacques Lamontagne's cover draws the eye immediately to a tense cabin confrontation: a heavyset man in a brown suit squares up against a smaller, caped figure in the doorway, while a third person lies motionless in the foreground, pistol in hand. It's a sharply composed scene that sets a mystery-thriller tone worthy of the classic European detective tradition.
