Publisher's summary

Audie Award Nominee, Science Fiction, 2013

Padlocked doors. Strange light fixtures. Mutant cockroaches.

There are some odd things about Nate’s new apartment. Of course, he has other things on his mind. He hates his job. He has no money in the bank. No girlfriend. No plans for the future. So while his new home isn’t perfect, it’s livable. The rent is low, the property managers are friendly, and the odd little mysteries don’t nag at him too much. At least, not until he meets Mandy, his neighbor across the hall, and notices something unusual about her apartment. And Xela’s apartment. And Tim’s. And Veek’s. Because every room in this old Los Angeles brownstone has a mystery or two. Mysteries that stretch back over a hundred years. Some of them are in plain sight. Some are behind locked doors. And all together these mysteries could mean the end of Nate and his friends. Or the end of everything....

Critic reviews

"A riveting apocalyptic mystery in the style of LOST." (Craig DiLouie, author of The Infection and The Killing Floor)
"A wholly original story that weaves together mystery and the apocalypse like a finely tuned band." (Evan Roy, Bricks of the Dead)

Editorial Review

If you love a good mystery and are even remotely interested in sci-fi or horror, 14 is the perfect escapist treat, and listener-favorite narrator Ray Porter is at the top of his game in this performance. Plus if you loved LOST like I did, this book will help with those withdrawals you're likely still experiencing (just me?)Sam P., Audible Editor

Simply Fun

14 has great narration, convenient characters, and a fun story. Don't look for anything too deep here.

Engaging

This book has an exciting mystery that drives a large portion of of the narrative.
The final act goes in a very different direction than I wanted or anticipated at the beginning but I was content with it.
Without giving too much away. Fans of paranormal mystery and horror will enjoy it.

Great story!Takes its time, but hits a dark edge!

I want sir where the story was going at first, but loved the interaction of all the different characters. Once it hits the mystery of what's happening, it catches its stride. Wouldn't mind a sequel tho too feel in some gaps!

This. Was. Amazing.

This book was the first of this author's that I've ever read and I'm so ecstatic that I have found him. My only complaint is that the book was only 12 hours long. I felt like this story could have been The Goonies as adults with much more to the villain and I loved every second of it.

A engaging story

This was my very first audio book and I loved it. The narration seemed a bit fast at first but overall it was captivating. The book really picks up in the second half for a thrilling climax

amazing!!!

This is one of the best books I have read in a very long time. I read a lot of horror/suspense and thought this was going to be much like the rest. What a pleasant surprise!!!! Great character development, storyline was fresh and I had no idea where it was going to go. Hooked from beginning to end and now looking forward to discovering more from this author.

A good HP Lovecraft inspired story

You get real into the mystery behind the place, spooky stuff right here.
Not too spooky, but more like, "scared of whats in the dark" spooky.

Awesome book!

I liked the story a lot. It wasn't as weird as some other reviews led me to believe it would be. In fact I think it would have been cool had there been MORE weirdness to it. It's a fun book to read.

My favorite part, tentacles...

Only if you really like sic-fi

I like mysteries and can even like them when they have a science fiction element, but this was not a very good mystery and the sci-fi was just too preposterous. There are many characters pretty well drawn and likable -- it was easy to keep track of them because they had pretty stock attributes to differentiate them. But the story just kept getting more and more outrageous and uninteresting. If I hadn't been on a long car trip with nothing else to listen to I would not have finished it.
