Louisiana, February 1863, during the American Civil War. Doyle, a deserter at the end of the southern army, arrives in the small town of Lake Providence, held by Union troops. Alcoholic and morphine-like, the man seeks not only to escape the Confederates, but also to escape from his own memories: former sniper, he had to murder a child in cold blood during a mission, and since then feels haunted By the phantom of the little girl, whose visions assail her more and more often. During a particularly violent, hallucinatory crisis, he defeated four soldiers. A comic by Séverine Gauthier and Benoît Blary.
