The Book of Skulls
Four students decide to cross the U.S. to find a kind of religious community that is said to have solved the secret of immortality. . . .
According to the information they have gathered, they get eternal life through a ritual involving four people. During this rite, it is said that two of them will be sacrificed, the other two will become immortal. . . .
The chapters are narrated in turn by four characters, presenting their different views and moods.
It's a fairly short novel that seems long enough. . . .
I warn you, the ending is typical Sylverberg: there is none!
