Largo Winch Book 12: The Way and The Virtue
Largo Winch Book 12: The Way and The Virtue, By Jean Van Hamme & Phillipe Francq, Cinebook
CONCLUDING THE Chinese connection story that began last volume but in hindsight was routed via sub-plots through much earlier tales, playboy hero Largo Winch is being sought by his friends even as he suffers a Manchurian Candidate experience.
You can almost feel the moment Van Hamme typed the word: “Go” in his script to Francq as the artist explodes to reveal breathtaking panoramas both externally and internally intercut with action driven chase scenes.
In a case of keep your friends close and your enemies closer still Van Hamme offers a few good twists to boot in this escapist monetary thriller, and by the volume’s conclusion you’ll even end up liking some of the characters you felt forced upon us as a new direction was being brought in a couple of books back. As ever, a top notch production.
