About this listen

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.

Critic reviews

"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

I loved Mary so was thrilled to see another book available so soon. This one is very different to Mary but still has the same complexity of characters, dry humor, and creepy AF sense of place. Get the book!

Another great book from Nat Cassidy!

Great Horror Story

Nothing! Great new take on the vampire legends. I how the author brought it all together. I could tell he related to each. Epic story!

The narrator was excellent! I didn’t listen to the whole sample & bought it.

I liked this book. I basically ate it for breakfast on audible. Good character development and subtle creepiness around every corner. It got kinda off balance near the end. Anyway I still recommend it. Just keep an open mind at the end.

Good not great

The minute she had a weird feeling, I was hooked. I really love stories where the building is a main character! Felt like I was very aware of how it was going, then bam! It would take a turn. There were a few parts that I was absolutely disgusted, in the best way! Honestly shocked at the end, and I think that was just the cherry on top! Highly recommend!

Gave me Rosemary's baby vibes!!!!!

The over all story was nice didnt expect a vampire plot nót the biggest fan of vampire stories but this is new and works the voice over when she was talking for the mom sounded sometimes like it was leaning towards bratty teen instead of exhausted mom but other than that it was great

Nice story

An entertaining, unsettling and weirdly relatable horror novel. Full of creepy crawlies and real-world struggles. There were a few loose ends, but whose life doesn't have those? Loved it.

One of my favorite new authors

Nat Cassidy is definitely an auto-buy author for me now. This and Mary are both favorites! Can't wait for his 2024 release.

1st 5-star of the year for me

I am struggling to determine if I just listened to a Horror Novel or a Thriller Novel. If it was a horror novel, my honest opinion would be it was a major miss. If it was a Thriller book, it was a wishy-washy Thriller at best. The characters were written in a way that didn't feel genuine or relatable. There was a major missed opportunity to describe this big beautiful, ancient building and how the characters truly became detached and angry, leaving me the reader wanting more. Camilla our villainess, should have been written in greater detail instead of the main focus on her career and her past, which had no relation to the present. Amanda who has experienced so much turmoil just felt flat for me. Reed, is a whole other ball of goop in himself feeling so whinny. Reed was supposed to be the support for his family but was characterized as not. It just fell flat and was a super slow start. The narration was however done exceptionally well.

2024 On to the Next.

A muddled Thriller.

This is a captivating and emotional story over the trials of motherhood, the monstrous form of parental gaslighting and at its heart a character(s) that feel genuine.

A unsettling and refreshing take on the Vampire
