About the series
In Les cinq de Cambridge (2015–2018), Casterman presents a three-issue comic series exploring the true story of the infamous Cambridge Five spy ring—a group of British double agents who infiltrated the highest levels of the UK government during the Cold War. The series is most associated with writer and artist Philippe Richelle, who crafts a tense, character-driven narrative focused on the web of loyalty, betrayal, and ideology that bound these men. This concise, self-contained work stands out for its atmospheric, European approach to historical espionage, offering a nuanced portrait of real-world intrigue without sensationalism.
