The youthful private-eye-in-training, Jerome. K Jerome Bloche—more Will Ferrel and Humphrey Bogart than Spade—is off to the French countryside, eager to solve his first real case. But an emergency summons from the Baron de Verville leads to an unexpected disappearing persons case, with two quite unhelpful suspects—the Baron's own adult children! And neither seems too concerned with the current state of affairs. For Jerome, the gothic architecture, secret passages, hidden closets, and suspicious characters are the perfect ingredients for a murder mystery!
Bullet points:
• Advance solicited for June release!
• "Jerome K Jerome Bloche is a very likable lead and this is a fine introduction to a series I expect to only get better as it builds its world, characters and (most likely) its running gags. Beautifully printed in an affordable hardback, I'm eager for the next several volumes. —JT Lindroos, Euro Comics Roundup
