About this audiobook
“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.

42 ratings4 reviews
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Good but not great.Got a little to supernatural for me at times.
Narration could use improvement. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great read! The dark times verse the good times was breathtaking. Definitely a thriller.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Maybe bad narration, maybe too much explaining and emotional narrative. The protagonist is a naive moron. I’ve stuck to it because I usually like Lisa Unger’s books; plan to finish it bc she’s good for a plot twist. Grinding away at 1.2x with 35 min to go.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5It’s a little more horror than I expected, but overall the story was great with great twist!
