review:
'Ghost Money: Death in Dubai' by Thierry Smolderen with illustrations by Dominique Bertail is a near-fugure thriller involving tracking money down that funded the 9/11 attack.

A young woman named Lindsey is rescued from a protest by a mysterious woman named Chamza, and their fates are intertwined. Chamza seems to have lots and lots of money, and she is being tracked by the US government. The story moves around the world and features technology that we don't currently have, but may soon, like cornea replacements to spy on people, and futuristic travel.

At 296 pages, this was a long read. It took me a while to finally review it because it just seemed a bit daunting to me. I'm glad I finally read it, but it could have been a shorter story. The art is mediocre and feels a bit muddy at times. The art feels a little gratuitous at times too.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Lion Forge, Diamond Book Distributors, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
