Jim is a security guard in a local shopping mall. He's on duty one day and his eye is caught by a newly published book on the shelves. The Nothing Man. His heart skips a beat. Surely not? Not after all these years? You see, Jim IS the one they call The Nothing Man. A serial killer active in Cork, Ireland 20 years ago. A survivor of his has decided to tell her story. And she's out to finally get justice.
.
.
This book blew my mind! It's the cleverest concept. The book you're reading is basically The Nothing Man memoir by the survivor (Eve Black) with Jim's reaction to it as he reads it. I honestly can't find better words to describe it! It's all very 'inception'.
.
.
It's easy to navigate though. You can clearly tell the difference between the parts that were Jim and the parts that were the memoir as different fonts are used and there is a distinctive tone of voice to each part.
.
I thoroughly recommend this book to all thriller fans and even more so to lovers of true crime podcasts. This combined both my love of the My Favourite Murder podcast and fictional thriller in one. So unique.
