Publisher's Summary

This program includes a bonus conversation with the author.

Nat Cassidy is at his razor-sharp best again with his horror novel Nestlings, which harnesses the creeping paranoia of Rosemary's Baby and the urban horror of Salem's Lot, set in an exclusive New York City residential building.

“This is the horror book of the year.”—Erika T. Wurth, author of White Horse

Ana and Reid needed a lucky break.

The horrifically complicated birth of their first child has left Ana paralyzed, bitter, and struggling: with mobility, with her relationship with Reid, with resentment for her baby. That's about to change with the words any New Yorker would love to hear—affordable housing lottery.

They've won an apartment in the Deptford, one of Manhattan's most revered buildings with beautiful vistas of Central Park and stunning architecture.

Reid dismisses disturbing events and Ana’s deep unease and paranoia as the price of living in New York—people are odd—but he can't explain the needle-like bite marks on the baby.

What the critics say

"Cassandra Campbell's careful pacing and deliberate articulation complement this horror audiobook.... Utilizing a variety of accents, she perfectly renders a large cast of humans and monsters, including a mysterious and glamorous movie star. Nat Cassidy narrates his author's note at the end with remarkable optimism, considering the distressing series of events that inspired the story." (AudioFile)

A truly creepy story of urban and bodily unease. Nat Cassidy has created a terrifyingly claustrophobic world, and his clean, beautiful prose manages to make the horrific events he describes here feel dismayingly plausible. You’ll certainly never look at a gargoyle the same way again.”—Scott B. Smith, Bestselling author of The Ruins and A Simple Plan

Nestlings cleverly pays homage to classic horror while also filling its Manhattan highrise with post-2020 frights and concerns. Nat Cassidy has written a creepy page-turner where the scariest things of all are what reside in the human (or inhuman) heart.”—Paul Tremblay, author of The Cabin at the End of the World and A Head Full of Ghosts.

“Nestlings builds on the success of Nat Cassidy's first novel, the strong Mary: An Awakening of Terror. An impressive accomplishment in its own right, Nestlings shows Cassidy expanding his range as a writer with skill and confidence, with this gripping twenty-first century take on some old terrors.”—John Langan, author of The Fisherman

Narration was good. Book was not

Really wanted to enjoy this. I just did not. I can’t really get into the why without spoilers and why the hell is there a 15 word minimum?

Creative and terrifying!

Five stars all around. As a voice over artist and wannabe author, oh, and lover of all things vampire, this was just lovely. From beginning to end, what a fresh, creative take on my fav horror monster

Fantastic

Masterfully written and narrated. Finished in two days! A chilling tale of love and grief. I very much look forward to what new stories Nat Cassidy cooks up in the years to come.
