Slade House by David Mitchell

Jonas and Norah want to live forever and with this comes a set of problems.  They must lure potential victims back to Slade House to suck out their souls.  Each chapter is another victim and they are all tied together.  Every eight years another soul is lured to Slade House and disappears within the ivy lined walls. The story is complicated and the reader feels a bit like we are following Alice down the rabbit hole. David Mitchell leads us willingly just as the twins lead their victims up to the attic because we are caught in disbelief.  I will never look at a stately old London home the same way again.
