Publisher's summary

Audie Award Nominee, Science Fiction, 2013

Padlocked doors. Strange light fixtures. Mutant cockroaches.

There are some odd things about Nate’s new apartment. Of course, he has other things on his mind. He hates his job. He has no money in the bank. No girlfriend. No plans for the future. So while his new home isn’t perfect, it’s livable. The rent is low, the property managers are friendly, and the odd little mysteries don’t nag at him too much. At least, not until he meets Mandy, his neighbor across the hall, and notices something unusual about her apartment. And Xela’s apartment. And Tim’s. And Veek’s. Because every room in this old Los Angeles brownstone has a mystery or two. Mysteries that stretch back over a hundred years. Some of them are in plain sight. Some are behind locked doors. And all together these mysteries could mean the end of Nate and his friends. Or the end of everything....

Critic reviews

"A riveting apocalyptic mystery in the style of LOST." (Craig DiLouie, author of The Infection and The Killing Floor)
"A wholly original story that weaves together mystery and the apocalypse like a finely tuned band." (Evan Roy, Bricks of the Dead)

Editorial Review

If you love a good mystery and are even remotely interested in sci-fi or horror, 14 is the perfect escapist treat, and listener-favorite narrator Ray Porter is at the top of his game in this performance. Plus if you loved LOST like I did, this book will help with those withdrawals you're likely still experiencing (just me?)Sam P., Audible Editor

A fun read

Very obviously inspired/influenced by Lovecraft, this good was a fun read. The performance was fantastic (but Ray Porter is always fantastic). It's well worth your Audible credit for the listen. :)

Excellent sci-fi audio book!

Story moves right along! Good voices from the narrator! Truly enjoyed how pieces of the mystery were revealed bit by bit.

Painfully slow start but better in the end

Almost gave up listening several times, but stuck with it and the story got better. The end was just ok at best. I could have skipped 2/3 of the book and missed little of interest to me.

Great introduction to Peter Clines

Great book! Characters were well developed. I’ll be listening to more Peter Clines after this. I do however wish there would have been a bit more detail to the ending. Don’t let that stop you though

Very interesting

I kept thinking, I guess that finishes the story, but no, there was more, and more, and more. A good sci fi story with lots of interesting twists and turns.

Good Sci-fi Mystery

I really enjoyed the overall premise and characters. It takes a bit to get going but once it does it pulls you in. There is something about having a group of characters that come together because of a mystery or event and grow closer because of it. The story does get a little cheesy but it works in my opinion. The narration was well done as well.

Almost M Night Shyamalan ish

Love the reader, always brings more life to the story than you’d expect. Thought the roaches would pay off more!

Exciting listen

This was very original and kept my attention. Lots of mystery and intrigue. I enjoyed the character development as well. I listened to the entire 4 book series. Fantastic.
