Another entertaining - and beautifully-drawn - entry in the "Blacksad" series, a crime-noir tale with anthropomorphic animals as the characters. Here, a young lion/author is on the road with a bad-influence buffalo, while series hero John Blacksad has taken the opportunity to drive a snazzy convertible home on behalf of its owner. Their paths cross when Blacksad intervenes in a fight - and the young lion and his pal promptly steal his car! Cue a lengthy chase, with Blacksad both pursuer and pursued - he has a long-time foe who's eager to see him behind bars.
There are subplots involving massive loss-of-temper with lethal results, a draft of a novel that triggers a lot of serious mayhem to people and {sob!} to cars, an upbeat hyena/attorney, a circus-as-temporary-hideout, and much more. Lively, funny, and heart-wrenching!
