Annotation:
The year 1851. The first World's Fair in London, the place where the cultural and technical achievements of the nations of the world are to be presented...
In the middle of the exhibition grounds, a "grave" is found hiding the body of a newborn child. To save the English elite from an international scandal, they try to keep the whole case secret, but two women, an English aristocrat and a Japanese woman – the mother of the newborn – set out on a campaign against the British Empire to clarify the circumstances of the case...
Thus, a story of revenge unfolds from the dark London of the Victorian era.

I didn't find out much about the content in advance and I was pleasantly surprised.
I like the elaborate artwork and the large format of the comic.
🌿
The story is not a relaxing affair, but on the contrary, it is properly dark and spans several centuries. The comic is for adult readers, and due to the mix of violence, death and eroticism, it is not entirely for the faint of heart.
🌿
This comic definitely caught my attention, the story is intricate, suspenseful, some scenes are literally shocking. I'm curious about the next volumes.
