Don't let go by Didier Cassegrain and Fred Duval based on a novel by Michel Bussi

A so-so read. Nice art and gripping throughout until the ending, which I found a bit rushed and anticlimactic. I'd say I was pretty hooked during the first 2/3s of the book, and maybe my expectations for an amazing ending were too big. Anyways, I still want to read more from this team of authors. Previously, I'd read Black Water Lilies (Nenúfares Negros in spanish)and loved it.

Nenúfares Negros (Black Water Lilies) by Cassegrain, Duval and Bussi

This is the Spanish translation. There is a digital translation to English by Europe Comics.


This is a gripping crime mystery graphic novel which is based on a novel of the same name by Michel Bussi. I loved the plot, and the twists. I loved the beautiful setting in a French village: Giverny, and the three mysterious female protagonists. And if that wasn't enough to like this book, there are, through out the whole novel, traces of Monet's art, in the landscapes and flowers that he painted and in some of the events in the story.
