Namibia, 1949. Three years after the Nuremberg trials, a white man is photographed in the middle of a corn field: it's Reichsmarschall Hermann Gring, who's supposed to have committed suicide in his cell. Worried about the geopolitical implications of the discovery, MI5 sends Kathy Austin to Namibia. There, along with her new partner a grumpy, misogynistic, racist old war horse, Kathy begins an investigation where the threat of Nazi resurgence soon makes way before more frightening and unexplainable phenomena.
Brazilian artist Leo is best known for his science-fiction, multi-series saga The Worlds of Aldebaran. He also created Canadian Mountie Trent as well as Kenya and its second season Namibia, all three with Rodolphe - a teacher, journalist and writer who's penned over 150 graphic novels so far and worked with some of the greatest names of Bandes Dessinees.
