It's been four years since seventeen-year-old Mitchell Johnson was hit by a bus and inexplicably ended up in the Underworld. Hell is miserable, but Mitchell knows things could be worse. After all, he has the coveted job of The Devil's intern--plus three close friends who keep him from dwelling too much on his untimely demise. Still, he'd rather be living. So when Mitchell discovers that his boss is in possession of a legendary time-travel mechanism called a Viciseometer, he starts forming a plan. With a device like that, Mitchell realizes, he could escape Hell, revisit his death, and prevent it altogether. Getting his hands on the device turns out to be easy. But preventing his friends from accompanying him--and protecting them from whatever it is that's stalking them through time--is going to be impossible.

Zombies, ghosts, the grim reaper and Poe’s raven all play a part in the story of Adrienne Milano, a girl born in a trailer park to a wayward woman, a prostitute and drug addict. A woman named Vicky, who speaks enigmatic messages to her only child from behind prison walls, haunted by a long-ago meeting with a crime boss named Debra Cardenti. Debra’s gift of a switchblade pendant to a trailer park resident proves to be a lethal killing force—and it becomes Adrienne’s legacy. When she teams up with Debra’s son, Louie, the couple cons, steals and murders without remorse. But on a hot August afternoon all the dead return—rising from olden crypts—resurrected from deathbeds after they’ve been poisoned or shot. Before long, zombies fill East Coast streets and highways, the ghosts speak cryptically and the grim reaper waits. Can Adrienne and Louie escape the monsters that pursue them, or will they perish within the apocalyptic landscape? SWITCHBLADE resembles the gritty nonlinear storytelling of PULP FICTION, combined with the classic terror of NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD. Quentin Tarantino, David Lynch, comic books and graphic novels are the author’s inspiration for this work of fiction.

Ninety-five years ago the enormous interplanetary space vehicle, the Pacifica, with a numerous crew, suddenly and inexplicably disappeared as it neared the planet Pluto. None of the probes directed towards the planet after the disaster found any evidence that the vessel and its crew had ever existed. Now, a century later, the wreck of the huge ship has been sighted, lying shrouded in the hazy-black starlight on the Plutonian surface. A shuttle has been fitted for the dangerous journey to the seventh planet, and with three crewmembers aboard, has made the first attempt to reach Pluto since the loss of the Pacifica. As the shuttle approaches the planet, it also 'suddenly and inexplicably' disappears and is lost. Although the crew of three is believed to have perished, they have not, and will carry on with their mission: to determine how the Pacifica met its fate. The truth, however, may be found only beyond reason, or even beyond imagination, and the three astronauts may wish that they never sought answer to this great mystery.
