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.

I don’t like books that contain barf or throw up and this one did sadly, the story itself was great and left it at a shock in the end

This novel sucked me in quickly and never let me go (pun intended). I loved this novel and its take on the horror/vampire/haunted apartment building genre. It was grotesque and emotional, and the prose was vivid and painted such a cool, dark picture. I loved the world-building and all of the unique characters of the Deptford. I really enjoyed this unique take on one of the main horror tropes and author Nat Cassidy's writing style.
