Publisher's summary

"Spine-tingling fun." —People

“Lisa Unger, you’ve done it again.” —Sarah Michelle Gellar, Emmy Award-winning actress


A couple inherits an apartment with a spine-tingling past in this unputdownable thriller from the New York Times bestselling author of Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six.

Rosie and Chad Lowan are barely making ends meet in New York City when they receive life-changing news: Chad’s late uncle has left them his luxury apartment at the historic Windermere in glamorous Murray Hill. With its prewar elegance and impeccably uniformed doorman, the building is the epitome of old New York charm. One would almost never suspect the dark history lurking behind its perfectly maintained facade.

At first, the building and its eclectic tenants couldn’t feel more welcoming. But as the Lowans settle into their new home, Rosie starts to suspect that there’s more to the Windermere than meets the eye. Why is the doorman ever-present? Why are there cameras everywhere? And why have so many gruesome crimes occurred there throughout the years? When one of the neighbors turns up dead, Rosie must get to the truth about the Windermere before she, too, falls under its dangerous spell.

A little bit of Rosemary’s Baby mixed with The Shining

The story was great, the narrator was excellent. A little bit of suspense, horror and mystery with a bit of supernatural happenings equals a very good read.

Good

Story was good performance was good. Overall, enjoyable and entertaining, I feel like the author could do without the gratuitous sex passages. It doesn’t add anything to the story, and frankly it kind of cheapens it. But overall it was a good book I liked it.

Secrets and haunts of an old building on Park Avenue in NYC.

Liked the story and all of its twists. The narrator was exceptional. Would definitely listen to this narrator again. Did not see that ending coming
