On a quiet street near a pub
in a working class neighborhood is Slade Alley from which one might find Slade
House. Slade house residents discreetly lure certain people to visit...a visit
from which they will never return. Visitors find the short and narrow black
iron door, which is the entrance to Slade House at 9 year intervals beginning
in 1979. After each disappearence, there is a flurry of activity to locate the
missing person which eventually ends. During the interval years the missing
people are forgotten until a new disappearence occurs. Events come to a climax
in 2015 with a hair raising conclusion that the reader will not see coming.This
is a true modern day horror story! The premise is original, the suspense
electric, and the protagonists portrayed in each chapter are characters with
whom the reader can relate. It so grabs
you that it can be read in one sitting. A most intelligent, thought provoking and
profoundly disturbing read.
