Thirteen Storeys is an anthology of short stories that come together in the end to tell the tale of Tobias Fell's death. Each chapter is about a resident or employee of Banyan Court (a London high rise with luxury apartments on one side and affordable housing on the other) each who are 'haunted' in one form or another.

Like all anthologies some stories are more compelling than others, but they were all necessary and purposeful. My favorites were Bad Penny, The Knock, Viewing Essential, A stubborn Stain, Round the Clock, Point of View, and of course The Builder. I loved seeing the characters from their neighbor's points of view as they entered and exited each other's tales.

The end was both grisly and satisfying. 4 stars! I'm excited to see what this author comes up with next.
