The Nothing Man

By: Catherine Ryan Howard

Narrated by: Alana Kerr Collins, John Keating

I was the girl who survived the Nothing Man. Now I am the woman who is going to catch him....

You've just read the opening lines of The Nothing Man, the true-crime memoir Eve Black has written about her obsessive search for the man who killed her family nearly two decades ago.

Supermarket security guard Jim Doyle is reading it too, and with each turn of the page his rage grows. Because Jim was - is - the Nothing Man.

The more Jim reads, the more he realises how dangerously close Eve is getting to the truth. He knows she won't give up until she finds him. He has no choice but to stop her first....

Critic reviews

"Gripping, beautifully written and genuinely chilling, The Nothing Man had me from page one. Simply stellar." (Meg Gardiner, award-winning author)

What a great story!

I thoroughly enjoyed this one, and although there weren’t any great surprises it was a great story well told. I found the female narrator slightly jarring at times as her voice seemed to get louder the more emphasis she placed on certain sentences, but really that’s a minor quibble.

Really it’s one of my favourite books this year. I’d definitely recommend it.
