The mystery revolves around a rich doctor's murder that occurred near Monet's famous garden in Giverny, that leads the detective to stumble upon the most beautiful woman of the village, while in the background, a little girl is trying to follow on the footsteps on Claude Monet to recreate his famous water lilies painting, and also an old female widow is managing pretty well to unfold the puzzling mystery with the help of her dog. Additionally some plants are also frost sensitive, so they will be held until the last frosts have passed. This is an outstanding read, set in Giverny, the beloved home of Claude Monet, a place now preserved in memory of the impressionist artist and his obsession with water lilies that inspired his innovative paintings. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. Nem vagyok oda az akadálypálya-jellegű krimikért, ahol az író addig kergeti nyomozóit egyik konfliktusból a másikba, egyik potenciális bűnöstől a másikig, amíg aztán valamelyik gyanúsított megunja a rohangálást és megpróbálja kinyírni a főhőst - na, innen tudjuk, hogy őt keresték.

My thanks to Europe Comics for a temporary digital edition via NetGalley of ‘Black Water Lilies’ with script by Fred Duval and Michel Bussi and art by Didier Cassegrain in exchange for an honest review. There are three major players in this book -- an "octogenarian" widow through whom we get most of the story, a beautiful young schoolteacher, and an eleven year-old girl, Fanette, who is a gifted artist in her own right. The novel has a compelling and atmospheric narrative with twists that make you want to reread the book.Lo so che solo qualche giorno fa mi ero ripromessa di leggere esclusivamente gialli di autori morti da molto tempo.

Her voice is strong and bewitching and the readers will instantly lose themselves in her story telling.

Jerome Morval, a man whose passion for art was matched only by his passion for women, has been found dead in the stream that runs through the gardens at Giverny, where Monet did his famous paintings.I only didn't like the character of the 36-year-old woman who didn't love her husband any longer and expects a prince charming to save her from her failed marriage. Tre donne molto diverse tra loro, che però hanno qualcosa in comune, una specie di segreto: tutte e tre vogliono andarsene da Giverny.

Big thanks to NetGalley and Europe Comics for providing a copy of this wonderful book in exchange for an honest review. The leaves will die in late autumn, and should be cut off as low downas possible and fished out, to prevent them decaying in the water. Pero el cómic funciona de maravilla, con un final que sorprende, muy bien hilado, y que deja satisfecho.The prologue sent a thrilling chill coursing through me, I was immediately captivated and remained that way for the entire tale. of 5 for well-executed comics adaptation - the crime comics from the village of Giverny - the place famous for Monet and his impressionism. I would have given this a perfect 5⭐️ rating, but I did feel a bit unsatisfied with one element of the whole story.

In addition, they can suffer from midge larvae, and, if it’s left untreated, they can cause serious damage to the lily pads. Os ha quedado claro: las tres eran diferentes, sin embargo, tenían algo en común, un secreto, digamos: las tres soñaban con irse de allí.

Not least, Sérénac’s eager puppy of an assistant, Bénavides, with his increasingly desperate attempts to distil the investigation into thoughtful diagrams and to balance his detective work with supporting his heavily pregnant wife. She sings of floating on a river and ends up in a place surrounded by a thousand black water lilies. From the gardens and the water sources from his paintings, to the narrow winding streets this small village sits in the middle of farmland which also weaves its way into the story, as it did Monet's paintings.
