Dr Siri`s bagged himself a holiday: an all-expenses-paid trip to the northern mountains of Laos. What`s more, through a bit of skilful bartering (well, blackmail) he has wangled it so that his nearest & dearest may accompany him. They are to assist a US-funded search for a lost CIA pilot
- Boyd Bowry
- missing since his aircraft was downed in 1968. But Siri`s not taking the search too seriously, as he strongly suspects that when the helicopter exploded, the pilot followed suit. However, just hours into the trip, it becomes apparent that ulterior motives are at work within the group. & Siri`s suspicions are confirmed when those associated with the airman start dropping like the insects that frequent his country. Siri & co are caught up in something big: something that goes way back, & way over their heads. &, if this wasn`t bad enough, a psychic of unquestionable repute then informs Siri that he will shortly die: in `a day or two`, to be precise.

This unnerving, taut and intricately woven tale by one of our most original and bewitching
writers begins in 1979 and reaches its turbulent conclusion around Hallowe`en, 2015. Because every nine years, on the last Saturday of October, a `guest` is summoned to Slade House. But why has that person been chosen, by whom and for what purpose? The answers lie waiting in the long attic, at the top of the stairs...
