About the book
Features two detectives, Rene and Agatha, on the tracks of Robert Illot, a serial killer who suffocates his victimes with various objects (including chickens and lightbulbs) along the highways of France. As they try to catch up with him, the row of corpses grows longer and longer... In this original graphic novel (released to great acclaim in his native France in early 2006), dreams and flashbacks converge with the ongoing narrative, done in Lehmann's hypnotically intense and labour-intensive woodcut style to form a disquieting vision of humanity.
