(3) 4-6 In this ghoulish Victorian pot-boiler, young Sam Toop--an undertaker's son who can communicate with ghosts--finds his services required when the Black Rot begins to infest London's haunted buildings. Who has been exorcising London's amiable ghost population, and why? A fast-paced mash-up of the grislier edge of Victorian London--mourning practices, spiritualism, haunted buildings, and serial murderers.
