I need help identifying a graphic novel series about a female adventurer in different parts of Africa, with tribal magic, death threats, severed limbs in the mail, etc.
I read it in French at a relatives house a few years ago, but I don't speak French, so I don't know more about the story. It may originally have been in another language, I don't know.
I remember a particular scene at the end of one book where she had to walk over hot coals, all the way to an old lady sitting there. She had to give her earring away to the old lady, and the old woman then opened her mouth comically wide and almost engulfed the adventurer.
