But the tranquility of their stay is quickly compromised, not only by the heated relationship between François and his wife, Clara, but especially by the sudden disappearance of Hermione, who is not the only missing canine in the area... <p/> François quickly finds himself under the fire of suspicion, and his relaxing vacation becomes a spell of unrelenting psychological torment.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>In 2001, Cyprien Mathieu decided to leave for Belgium to pursue his arts education. After graduating he began drawing for the newspaper <i>Fakir</i> and participated in several micro-publications, including that of Cheval de Quatre with his friends Olivier Perret and Rémy Benjamin, whom he met at Beaux-Arts in Tournai. In 2016, they all joined together to bring to life <i>Dog Days</i>, first published in France by La Boîte à Bulles. <p/>Originally from the Grenoble region, Olivier Perret (Pero) attended the School of Fine Arts of Tournai. After his artistic studies, the young Pero began investing his body and soul into the creation and animation of the magazine Cheval de four. He has participated in the collectives of Mickael Jackson (<i>Small to Small</i>) and <i>Envie de Strawberry 2</i> (Oro production). In 2010, he signed his first non-collective book, <i>Un jour sans</i>, published by Ankama. Though still a relatively new author, he already exhibits a mastery of the graphic and narrative art form--a talent that is confirmed in <i>Dog Days</i>.
