In 1920s Poland, a family’s quiet life is upended when their young son, marked by a white streak in his dark curls, vanishes without a trace. Decades later, as the Nazis occupy the country, Anton and Sofia face execution for their resistance ties—only to be spared by a soldier whose face reveals a startling, familiar detail. "The Enigma of Edith!" unfolds with haunting mystery, its emotional weight drawn from a single, unforgettable revelation. Penciled and inked by John Forte, the story’s eerie atmosphere is matched by Ogden Whitney’s striking cover.

In 1920s Poland, a family’s quiet life is upended when their young son, marked by a white streak in his dark curls, vanishes without a trace. Decades later, as the Nazis invade and Anton and Sofia face execution for their resistance ties, the soldier ordered to carry out the sentence hesitates—then lets them flee. As he wipes his brow, the faint white streak in his hair betrays a secret that echoes across time.
