About

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.

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.

Reviews

"Nestlings is so f***ing good it makes me mad."
Chuck Wendig, author of Wayward
"The Deptford . . . is as memorable as literature's well-known Overlook Hotel and Hill House. Nat Cassidy is good at revealing just enough to disquiet, steadily ratcheting up dread and "too late?" anxiety until you don't know what the right choices are. This unusual vampire novel asks what is the price of belonging; how much is survival worth. No easy answers here."
