XIII and his friends, still in hiding from the NSA, now have the riddle from all three silver watches and Maximilian's gold is within their reach. But the treasure is well hidden. Not to mention that $15 million is enough to attract a lot of unwanted attention. Meanwhile, in Washington, an increasingly desperate Frank Giordino can feel the noose tightening around his neck - and men are at their most dangerous when desperate. All he needs is someone to bring him the right information.
Initially serialized in Spirou magazine in 1984, "XIII" was created by Jean Van Hamme, the author behind "Thorgal" and "Largo Winch" - the latter in comic and book form as well as on the big screen - and William Vance, illustrator of the bestsellers "Howard Flynn," "Bruce Hawker," "Bruno Brazil," "Bob Morane" and "Marshall Blueberry."
