In *Prisoners of the Sun*, Tintin and Captain Haddock follow Professor Calculus into the Peruvian highlands, only to be met with suspicion and silence from the locals.

Hergé’s masterful storytelling, co-written with Leslie Lonsdale-Cooper and Michael Turner, and brought to life with his signature line work and inks, delivers a gripping adventure steeped in mystery and suspense. The cover, also by Hergé, captures the tension of their perilous journey.
