New International Murder Mystery GN ‘I Am Their Silence’ Coming This Summer
Dark Horse announced the new graphic novel I Am Their Silence from creator Jordi Lafebre will be available in a new English hardcover edition this July. The Eisner Award-nominee’s story will be lettered by Cromatik, Ltd. and translated by Montana Kane.
What’s the publisher saying about the new book?
Eva is a brilliant psychiatrist, but when she finds the Monturos family patriarch dead the night before a party discussing the family’s future and their wine-making empire, Eva is catapulted into a web of intrigue and deception. With her name on the suspect list, Eva transforms into an amateur sleuth out of obsession more than self-defense.
Guided by the voices of her dead relatives, who seem to haunt her wherever she goes, Eva journeys through Barcelona to uncover the real killer, all while dealing with the Monturos family’s trouble and, seemingly, her own.
“As someone who once lived in Spain for a while, I love the setting of this GN, and I especially love how Jordi Lavebre makes you feel like you're right there, walking the bustling streets of Barcelona alongside Eva,” said Kane. “As a translator, it is always a pleasure to work on a book with language that jumps off the page. And I am always especially thrilled to encounter female protagonists with a strong sense of humor and sharp wit, because ultimately, there don’t seem to be very many of them, unfortunately.
