The Devil's Detour Michael Egan

Ann Savage, savage by name, savage by nature, is on the game. She lifts a wallet stuffed full of crisp one-thousand-dollar notes from a punter. What she doesn't know then and soon finds out is that whoever steals this wallet unwittingly inherits a curse. A "Night Of The Living Dead" type curse, you turn into a zombie and eat then living. Creepy stuff. Ann picks up Frank in the car park of a pub. Frank is a world-class pussy hound and an all-round dirtbag. On their first night together in a cockroach-infested city motel, Frank and Ann indulge in loads of drugs, booze and crazy sex, during which Ann transforms into a vicious demon intent on killing Frank. Frank kills her only tohave her return the next morning, not a mark on her, with no memory of the night before. Before long, they cross paths with the wallet's true owner, the sadistic demon Nybbas, the Devil's vice-regent on Earth, and find themselves in a twisted game of kill-or-be-killed for all eternity unless they can break the curse before the Blood Moon in two days. If they fail to defeat Nybbas, the Devil will be unleashed on Earth for a thousand years. The fate of humankind rests on Frank's shoulders. Yep we're screwed."A girl should be two things: classy and fabulous. Ann savage is neither."Coco Chanel
