Slade House by David Mitchell
Deliciously spooky, Slade House is perfect reading as the season creeps toward Halloween. It is, as Anthony Doerr put it, "a Hansel and Gretel for grown-ups". Every nine years, someone special is lured inside, but there is only a solid brick wall where the entrance supposedly was.
You won't be able to put down this signed first edition. The clever die-cut hardcover opens to reveal a map of the house with a seemingly infinite staircase. To be clear, the sticker on the front is silver, despite appearing pink in the photograh.
