Publisher's Summary

Apartment 16 is another gripping novel full of suspense and horror from Britain’s ‘master of horror’, Adam Nevill, twice winner of the August Derleth award.

In Barrington House, an upmarket block in London, there is an empty apartment. No one goes in, no one comes out. And it has been that way for 50 years. A young American woman, Apryl, arrives at Barrington House. She's been left an apartment by her mysterious Great Aunt Lillian, who died in strange circumstances. Rumours claim Lillian was mad. But her diary suggests she was implicated in a horrific and inexplicable event decades ago. Determined to learn something of this eccentric woman, Apryl begins to unravel the hidden story of Barrington House. She discovers that a transforming, evil force still inhabits the building. And the doorway to Apartment 16 is a gateway to something altogether more terrifying.

An ok read. Has some good parts

I liked how it started and the pace and getting to know the characters.
I couldn't stomach the clicker style of writing. I also could relate to the grand daughter. building a story through reading of journals made it a boring and tedious listening experience.
However the night security guys story and narrating of it was more my style and I really enjoyed those chapters.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
