Tracy doesn’t believe that Santa can deliver all of those presents in one night with out a little help from science. A flying sleigh can only be powered by jet engines, and Santa’s magical abilities can only be the result of altered DNA. In order to test her theories, she sneaks onto Santa’s sleigh and ends up at Santa Command, the place where a team of humans monitors Santa’s big night. When Tracy attempts to hack into their computers, she accidentally introduces a virus to their system. As a result, three states get knocked out of sync with the rest of the world. Before the night is over, Tracy has to fix time and help Santa finish his deliveries. And she has to do it all with Santa’s magic, which she doesn’t believe exists.

Mark Stewart is one incident away from becoming a juvenile delinquent, and his parents have had enough. They ship Mark off to London, England, to stay with his eccentric aunt Agatha who is obsessed with all things Jack the Ripper. After a strange twist of luck, Mark is struck by lightning, and he wakes to find himself in 1888 Victorian London. His interest in a string of murders Scotland Yard has yet to solve make him a likely suspect. After all, why would a young boy like Mark know so much about the murders? Could he be the ripper they've been searching for? Convinced the only way to get back home is to solve the murders, Mark dives headfirst into uncovering the truth. Mark's only distraction comes in the form of the beautiful Genie Trembly, a girl who is totally out of his league and who may have already caught the attention of the infamous ripper. To save her, he'll endanger both their lives, and risk being trapped in the past forever.

Excerpt

Tom had pulled a chair to the front of the room and climbed onto it. It was something he’d done before. It helped him to be seen by as many of the kids under his command and protection as possible. Well, seen and heard.

He said loudly, “She’s been plannin’ this for at least a month, scheduling three different police events all around City Hall, all around us, and all for this evening. The media’s been callin’ ‘em ‘urban peace-keeping simulations’ or ‘training exercises.’ The Queen ain’t been settin’ them up herself, of course. Lilith Cavanaugh’s dead as far as the world’s concerned. She jumped out her sixth-floor office window almost two months ago.” He managed a grin. “I know, ‘cause I was there.”

That actually earned him some laughs and applause.

Standing nearby, Helene and I swapped glances. We were thinking the same thing: those were likely to be the last laughs he got today.

I flexed my right hand. It felt good. The Anchor Shard had done its job.

I glanced over at Sharyn. She’d been healed up too, and now stood at her brother’s side—though, from her expression, I could tell that, right now, she wanted to be somewhere else, with someone else.

The only Undertaker who wasn’t here.

The chief continued, “But she’s got cronies positioned in just the right spots in city government, and they’ve been settin’ this up. Just today, she brought in two new Corpses to be co-police chiefs, since the last one got iced by Helene.”

A few more cheers and applause. Helene blushed uncomfortably.

Tom said, “Both these chiefs are somethin’ called ‘Specials,’ a particular breed o’ Malum that’s hardwired for combat. They’re tough. Very tough. But they ain’t unbeatable. Will already managed to waste one, the one called Parker, this afternoon at the Philly Water Works.”

Still more cheers. I ignored them. I hadn’t taken out Parker.

Dillin had.

“But that still leaves Cole, who’s gonna be commandin’ the Malum attack. Undertakers, they’ve gathered up at each of Haven’s entrances … and our best guess puts their numbers at close to fifteen hundred. They’ve already closed ranks and sealed off the exits, trapping us in here.”

No applause this time. No laughter. Just graveyard silence.

“They’ve found us,” the chief said. “It don’t matter how. Cavanaugh’s been biding her time, waitin’ for the right moment to hit us. Well, that moment’s here, ‘cause school just got out. All through the area, the last middle schools’ve shut down for the summer. So every Schooler, more’n seventy of them, are back home. ‘Course, in a week’s time, some of y’all would’ve gone back out, taking up spots in summer camps and such, always on the lookout for more Seers. But for now, for this tiny window, all of us … all of us … are here. And the Queen of the Dead knows it.

“Bottom line, Undertakers. She’s comin’ for us. Tonight.”

CHARACTER PROFILE: Will Ritter

William Karl Ritter is thirteen years old, sort of. 

The son of a slain Philadelphia police detective, Will was a relatively normal 8^th grader—until he started seeing Corpses.  After that, running for his life from intelligent, animated cadavers who wished nothing more less to kill him, Will fell in with the Undertakers.  He’s since grown into a force to be reckoned with, a natural soldier with a talent for trouble.  Resourceful and often recklessly courageous, Will’s specialty is doing incredibly foolish things in the midst of dire circumstances and somehow making his brave but unwise actions work for him.

Will’s mother and little sister, Susan and Emily Ritter, recently joined the Undertakers as refuges from a Corpse attack.  Now they live in Haven, the Undertakers’ secret HQ, where their presence is both a comfort and a trial for him. Will and his mom often bump heads, mostly over the fact that, in the six months during which Will lived away from her, he evolved from a boy into a hero, something that Susan Ritter instinctively resists.

Will’s best friend is his roommate in Haven, the gigantic Dave “The Burgermeister” Burger.  He has also been harboring a clumsy crush on Helene Boettcher, the first Undertaker Will ever met, and a girl who has saved his life on more than one occasion.

Ty Drago does his writing just across the river from Philadelphia, where the Undertakers novels take place.  In addition to The Undertakers: Rise of the Corpses,The Undertakers: Queen of the Dead, and The Undertakers: Secret of the Corpse Eater, he is the author of The Franklin Affair and Phobos, as well as short stories and articles that have appeared in numerous publications, including Writer’s Digest.  He currently lives in southern New Jersey with his wife and best friend, the real Helene Drago née Boettcher.
