V městečku Kostokřupy, věčně utopeném v mlze, dojde k neštěstí: Adéla a jeho sestra osiří. Ano, čtete správně: kluk jménem Adéla, takhle ho pojmenoval jeho táta. A Adélově sestře nedal jméno vůbec, tvářil se, jako by dceru ani neměl. Byl to zkrátka kruťas, povoláním vůdce gangu Ničitelů, kterého se bálo celé městečko. Tudíž by si zasloužil, aby z něj někdo udělal fašírku. A přesně to se také stalo – takže to vlastně až takové neštěstí nebylo. Z činu jsou ovšem podezřelí nebozí sourozenci. Nezbývá jim než se dát na útěk – jde po nich zkorumpovaná policie i Ničitelé. Naštěstí si je vezme pod ochranná křídla bývalé zločinecké duo Bezkosťa Karlos a Kala Ocelová holeň. Nebezpečí ale číhá na každém rohu, městečko se pomalu, ale jistě propadá do chaosu a sourozenci nezadržitelně míří do světa plného tajemství, bizarních postav, monster a zlých kleteb. K popukání zábavné, černým humorem okořeněné dobrodružství pro děti i dospělé. „Kniha je primárně určena dětem a její humor je opravdu mladistvě cool, což znamená, že je drsný, příjemně ujetý a famózně nechutný, má zkrátka švih a grády.“ Starbust Magazine

Cloning, genetic screening, embryo freezing, in vitro fertilization, Norplant, RU486--these are the technologies revolutionizing our reproductive landscape. Through the lens of procreative liberty--meaning both the freedom to decide whether or not to have children as well as the freedom to control one's reproductive capacity--John Robertson, a leading legal bioethicist, analyzes the ethical, legal, and social controversies surrounding each major technology and opens up a multitude of fascinating questions: Do frozen embryos have the right to be born? Should parents be allowed to select offspring traits? May a government force welfare recipients to take contraceptives? Robertson's arguments examine the broad range of consequences of each reproductive technology and offers a timely, multifaceted analysis of the competing interests at stake for patients, couples, doctors, policymakers, lawyers, and ethicists.
