Book Title?

[Westenra-Fan]

does anybody know the Title/Author  of the book that is about a guy that meet homeless people on the streets and offers to take them back to his home for something to eat   and when they get back he kills them one by one and hides them under the floorboards.

Don't know that one, but if that's what floats your boat, you might like Under the Skin by Michel Faber.

the only reason im looking for it  is because we read it in english lessons at school many years ago and i was interested in reading it again

Stone Cold by Robert Swindells?

A similar storyline was used in Stephen King's "Apt Pupil"...

[andy hughes]

Sorry delboy3 - Apt Pupil is about a teenage boy who finds out that an old German neighbour is actually an ex-Nazi and he blackmails him into telling him tales about the camps ...

Killing for Company by Brian Masters is the true story of Dennis Nielson, who did this in real life, and before Harold Shipman was convicted, was Britains biggest mass murderer
