Product Description
When Jerry leaves his old life in London behind and travels to Beijing to take up a teaching position, at first he is enchanted by the brave new world he finds awaiting him. However, things soon take a turn for the worse. Upon his arrival he learns of the mysterious disappearance of his predecessor, and after he moves into his new apartment he is plagued by strange dreams in which he shares the apartment,and his bed, with a ghostly entity. Then things start going bump in the night, and Jerry soon finds himself embroiled in the kind of supernatural drama previously been unthinkable to him. Eventually he is forced into the accepting the realization that something else was waiting for him on the other side of the world, and perhaps even in the next world. His time is quickly running out.

Review by J.F. Taylor from The Monsters Next Door 9 (Road Trip):
(Posted here by the author):
Apartment 14F is a frightening romp through the cultures of a foreign land which kept me turning the pages until the end. Christian takes you by the hand and drags you deep into a world that most of us will never experience and then thrusts you headlong into a mystery we are never sure will be solved.
The climax is a twisted view of love and needs unsatisfied, which leaves you wanting to keep the light on. The surrealism within this story is something I haven't personally experienced in literature since H.P. Lovecraft and Algernon Blackwood. If you like being frightened by the bump in the night or the monsters that may lie in wait in the darkness then I wouldn't read this story. For this story will only leave you believing they surely exist.

The book surprised me with good quality ghost writing. It is quite short and does read very fast. I read in it a couple of hours. Unlike some ghost stories, it's also very descriptive and realistic and has unexpected ending. I would recommend it.

I first saw this book as a recommend in a magazine. In fact, I hadn't read a book for a while and being a horror story fanatic, I was instantly intriged by the write up.
Feet first in to the story from page one I read the whole book over 2 days. Albeit, not the longest read.......
Quite an original story line, and for once I couldnt double guess the ending! well done Christian.
With a twist in the tale, I would even liken the style of writing to the master James Herbert.
If you like a quick horror fix, that will leave you wanting more, then this book is for you.
