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.

NPR Books We Love 2023

Best Horror of 2023—Esquire, Den of Geek

Best Horror of 2023 (Honorable Mention)—Paste

Ana and Reid needed a lucky break. The horrifically complicated birth of their first child has left Ana paralysed, bitter, and struggling: with mobility, with her relationship with Reid, and 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.
