Jason has managed to give his captors the slip, but he was forced to leave Betty behind, severely injured. After a short but tense episode dealing with the north-eastern mafia, he's off to the next step in his quest: Leiden, Holland, from where half of the Mayflower expedition left, and where his godfather appears to live. But his enemies haven't given up, and the young local guide he's picked brings her own heap of troubles...
Yves Sente began writing scripts in 1999 and has already acquired considerable clout, being chosen as successor to Van Hamme for the series Thorgal and the sequel to XIII and working with Van Hamme on Blake & Mortimer. Arrived from Russia with his first completed project in hand, Youri Jigounov proved himself to the Franco-Belgian comic scene with series Alpha, so much so that his elegant, precise art was chosen to succeed William Vance's.
