Continuing the DeathNote series, Light gets closer to being caught. From this point he will have to be careful where he steps. Did he leave one very important clue for the police? He must retrace his steps and cover anything he might have overlooked. In this volume, super detective L is finally revealed! His first name, we think, and face are revealed, as he teams up with the few remaining Task Force employees. A great read, I can't wait to get my hands on volume three!

DeathNote delves into the criminal mind in a way that I, personally, have never seen exploited. It mixes in the fantasy element of the Shinigami, Gods of Death, and the childish hope of freeing the world of evil. As the main character, Light, begins purging the world of murderers and crooks, the cops are close behind him. DeathNote shows both sides of the story, Light's perspective and super detective L's perspective, along with the police progress. This book leaves you wanting to find out what will happen next, not wanting Light to be caught, but then still ethically caught. Do the prisoner's really deserve to die?
