"Writer Carlos Sampayo and artist José Muñoz have together created a complex story that weaves together episodes from Billie Holiday's life, the calculating commentary of a cynical, burned-out newspaper reporter, and the memories of Alack Sinner, a former police officer whose life intersected with Holiday's briefly but significantly. The three different versions of Holiday's life combine into a stunning portrait of a doomed artist. From her friendship with saxophonist Lester Young to her heroin addiction to the subtle expressiveness of her music Billie Holiday brings a great vocalist to life."--Cover.
