Like a true crime podcast crossed with a long-lost diary, Where the
Body Was is unlike anything Brubaker and Phillips have ever done,
and a must-have for all their avid fans! A boarding house full of
druggies. A neglected housewife. A young girl who thinks she’s a
superhero. A cop who wants to be left alone. And a Private
Detective looking for a runaway girl. These stories collide one
fateful summer in Where the Body Was, a tale of love and murder in
the suburbs, told from a dozen different points of view. All the
neighbors on the block have an opinion about the murder and how it
happened, but which of them is telling the truth? Starting with a
map of the crime scene, this murder mystery follows the ripples of
this killing as they echo through decades of love and loss and
passion and violence. Where the Body Was is a tour-de-force readers
will be obsessed with from grandmasters Ed Brubaker and Sean
Phillips—the bestselling multiple Eisner award winning creators
of Pulp, Reckless, and Criminal.
