Zagor LU #171: Tamo gdje teče rijeka
Investigating river raids and a boy’s kidnapping, Zagor meets the man who once saved his life, but clues point towards the trappers at his old friend’s fort.
Tamo gdje teče rijeka connects an investigation into river robberies with the return of someone from Zagor’s youth. Kirk Wheeler saved Pat Wilding’s life before he became the Spirit with the Hatchet. Years later, Zagor finds him leading a group of fur trappers based at a small fort bordering Native territory.
Their reunion is overshadowed by serious crimes. Raiders have been attacking barges on Darkwood’s rivers and have kidnapped a boy for ransom. Although the evidence initially suggests Native attackers, suspicions arise concerning some of Kirk’s companions. The investigation reaches the circle of a man to whom Zagor owes his life.
Luigi Mignacco builds a crime western around the tension between gratitude and the need to establish the truth. Memories of past kindness cannot replace an examination of present events, while a kidnapped child’s safety makes delay impossible. Personal trust and troubling clues give the adventure an emotional dimension alongside its mystery.
Marcello Mangiantini illustrates the river setting and the trappers’ frontier environment. This issue opens a two-part storyline concluded in Ludens #172, Traperi iz utvrde Arrow.
