A novel by Peter Clines (author of the Ex-Heroes series and The Eerie Adventures of Robinson Crusoe). 14 chronicles the journey of a young man named Nate Tucker who rents an apartment in Los Angeles where the rent is suspiciously cheap, the cockroaches are bright green with an extra leg, and there's a single padlocked room on his floor that seems to terrify everyone around him. Except, it's the room next door to it where people are constantly committing suicide.A cerebral horror novel, 14 is published by Permuted Press and has received much praise for its labyrinthine but understandable mystery. It has another book in the same universe by the same author, The Fold. | |

Hidden in Plain Sight: The Kavach Building itself acts as one. You might suspect the device to be in the house, but you wouldn't expect the house to BE the device. It's just a weird little apartment building in L.A, right? | |

Mysterious Past | |
14 (Peter Clines) / int_421ae215 | comment |
Mysterious Past: Nate and the others start to suspect this about Tim as the story goes on (Veek at one point says, in reference to Tim knowing things the average person wouldn't, "you can only use that 'I read a book about it' excuse so many times"). When the shit hits the fan later in the book and Tim reveals his power, he says he may have at one time been affiliated with a "three-letter agency". | |
