Kids Mystery

Les Dead Hunters ont une morale très personnelle. C'est la moindre des choses pour une confrérie de tueurs sanguinaires. Ils ont aussi quelques menus défauts, se croire invincibles, par exemple. Un démon va néanmoins vite les détromper. Malin, fort et intelligent comme seuls les démons savent parfois l'être, il va tranquillement les décimer les uns après les autres. À une exception près. Un des membres des Hunters reste en effet introuvable, et non des moindres : le "Bourbon Kid".
