Gabriel dreams of buying back Malaterre, an estate built by his ancestors in the heart of the jungle over a century ago. Of going there, living there, and restoring the Lesaffre family honor. Of passing it on to his children. But he knows nothing about the country or managing a timber forest. He will have to risk it all, taking his two eldest with him and separating them from their mother and younger brother. All of this, of course, is completely crazy.

About the author
Pierre-Henry Gomont
Born in 1978, Pierre-Henry Gomont pursued various professions, including some years as a sociologist, before becoming a graphic novel author. He took his first steps as a creator in 2010 by participating in the collective volume "13m28," published by Manolosanctis, to be followed in 2011 by his first full volume, "Kirkenes" (Les Enfants rouges), written by Jonathan Châtel. In parallel, he began writing and illustrating another book, "Catalyse" (Manolosanctis), followed by a quick succession of other works, including "Rouge karma," "Les Nuits de Saturne," and the award-winning "Pereira prétend," with publisher Sarbacane. In 2018, Gomont completed "Malaterre," a rich and immersive graphic novel published by Dargaud (Europe Comics 2019).
