description: The first in a series of European graphic novels brought to the U.S. by Dark Horse Comics, Blood Ties features the stunning art of Hermann. He is one of Europe`s leading comic artists and the creator of Jeremiah, The Towers of Bois-Maury, Caatinga, Nick, Sarajevo Tango, Wild Bill, and many others. While investigating a series of horrible crimes, junior detective Sam Leighton discovers the squalid reality of the big city. The murders are the work of Joe Beaumont -- a man as powerful as he is paranoid. Joe only appears in public to attend the shows of his beautiful wife Gladys, an alcoholic and a frustrated cabaret dancer. Sam`s mysterious partner, Phillip Meadows, puts Gladys in Sam`s way hoping that she will lead them to Beaumont regardless of the danger to Sam!
