Genre notes: wartime resistance, adventure

This is light reading, probably on a level with Tintin in terms of narrative depth. A fairly hapless French underground participant during the German occupation gets nabbed for contraband (guns!) and she gets thrown in together with a professional conman/thief/rogue. The live on the lam and lie low trying to find news of her sister. There aren't many twists and turns but there are a couple. Reading this was a nice way to pass the afternoon and the art is pretty to look at, even if the heroine does look maybe a touch too pouty all the time.
Good Ok Bad features reviews of comics, graphic novels, manga, et cetera using a rare and auspicious three-star rating system. Point systems are notoriously fiddly, so here it's been pared down to three simple possibilities:
3 Stars = Good
2 Stars = Ok
1 Star = Bad
