Demon Road

Lubage tutvustada, Luuker Leebesurm – tarkpeast detektiiv, kõikvõimas maag, räpaste trikkide ja murdvarguste meister. Ahjaa, ja surnud. Koos ebatavalise ja salapäraselt andeka Stephanie Edgleyga moodustavad nad liidu, mis peab jagu saama kõikematvast iidsest kurjusest. „Detektiiv Luuker Leebesurm: Mängides tulega“ on teine lugu Derek Landy põrgulikult põnevast noorteseeriast. Serpin on surnud, maailm on taas ohust päästetud. Vähemalt seda Valküüria ja Leebesurm arvavad, kuni kurikuulus parun Vengeus murrab end veriselt vanglast välja ja üle kogu Iirimaa ilmub välja laipu ning vampiire. Kui parun Vengeus saab kätte ka Lord Julma surmavalt ohtliku turvise ja enam-vähem kõik soovivad Valküüria surma, seisab vapra detektiividuo ees nende seni suurim väljakutse. Ent vahest ähvardab Valküüriat suurim oht hoopis lähemal…?
„Sa tapad ta?” küsis Piin. Leebesurm vajus longu. „Jah.” Koterman vaatas Kaini. Too seisis vaikides nii sirgelt kui suutis ja üritas pisaratest hoolimata kartmatuna näida. Leebesurm kõhkles ja võttis siis pintsaku varjust revolvri. „Andesta mulle, Valküüria,” poetas Leebesurm vaikselt. „Ära räägi minuga. Tee lihtsalt, mida tegema pead.” Kain tegi vesti eest lahti ja Koterman naeratas. Ta soovis nii väga, et kogu see värk jääks lindile, siis saaks ta seda edaspidi ikka ja jälle üle vaadata. Hetk, kui Luuker Leebesurm mõrvas Valküüria Kaini. „Palun andesta mulle,” ütles Leebesurm, sihtis ja vajutas päästikule.
