Meet the Iremongers a very large and quirky, to say the
least, family who live in a strange pieced together dilapidated mansion in the
middle of a vast pile of junk near London, England. When a new Iremonger is
born they are given what they call, a birth object that represents them and
shapes who they become. One of the narrators, Clod Iremonger, aged 15, has a
bath plug for a birth object. Some of the others have items that are even
stranger. Clod though has the ability to hear these items speaking and when
they start whispering more loudly and start disappearing, he teams up with
Lucy, one of the servants, to solve the mystery.
