Publisher's Synopsis
Set in Friend, Nebraska during World War II, Abel is the
story of racism, betrayal, and murder. At the center is thirteen-year- old John
Vitosh, a lonely boy who lives under the constant violence of his older brother
Philip. Friendless, John is taken under the wing of Mr. Mar, a Chinese
man-servant for the wealthy Mr. Harrison, but it is a friendship which threatens
to not only rip apart the Vitosh family, but the entire community of Friend as
well. If you like Road to Perdition, you'll enjoy this compelling, sepia-toned
graphic novel. Afterword by World Fantasy Award-winning author Rachel Pollack;
matte-finished cover by Brian Wood.
