A cool, hip, wisecracking psychiatrist named Eva turns amateur sleuth after a rich Catalan winemaker is found dead at the luxurious family estate hours before the reading of the matriarch's will, and Eva is viewed as one of the prime suspects. As she embarks on a chaotic journey through a richly detailed and seductive Barcelona cityscape to uncover the real killer, she must deal with two different families and their troubled dynamics: the rich family that makes wine...and the family that talks to her in her head.

About the author
Jordi Lafebre
Jordi Lafebre was born in Barcelona, where he studied comic book art and fine arts before making his debut as an illustrator in 2001. He's been published in several Spanish magazines, such as Mister K, to which he contributed "El Mundo de Judy" in collaboration with writer Toni Front. When he met Zidrou, things really took off for him. After a few illustrations for the weekly Spirou magazine, he contributed to a collective work, "La vieille dame qui n'avait jamais joué au tennis et autres nouvelles qui font du bien," illustrating a story written by Zidrou. In 2010, he and Zidrou collaborated again on a very successful album called "Lydie" (Dargaud; Europe Comics in English, 2018), and then once more in 2014, with the gritty "La Mondaine" (Europe Comics 2016, "Vice Squad"). The duo's most recent creation is the feel-good series "Les Beaux Étés," currently underway (Dargaud; "Glorious Summers," Europe Comics 2018).
