Thomas Silane #7

The seventh chapter of the Thomas Silane series arrives with "Roots," and Roberto Zaghi's cover sets a tense, cinematic tone — a man fires his gun beside a speeding red SUV carrying a female passenger, while an enormous hand grips a massive blade against a night sky above them. The sense of danger closing in from all directions gives this 2015 Daedalus release an unmistakable thriller edge, with Cyril Saint-Blancat's colors lending the scene a cool, moody atmosphere. If you've been following Thomas Silane's journey, this installment looks like a chapter where things get very personal, very fast.
