About this listen

He wants to remember. She needs to forget. . . . Memento meets Sharp Objects in a gripping psychological thriller from the New York Times bestselling author of Something in the Water and The Disappearing Act.

“Twisty . . . highly imaginative . . . deliciously provocative.”—The Washington Post

Who is Mr. Nobody?

When a man is found on a British beach, drifting in and out of consciousness, with no identification and unable to speak, interest in him is sparked immediately. From the hospital staff who find themselves inexplicably drawn to him, to international medical experts who are baffled by him, to the national press who call him Mr. Nobody, everyone wants answers. Who is this man? And what happened to him?

Some memories are best forgotten.

Neuropsychiatrist Dr. Emma Lewis is asked to assess the patient in a small town deep in the English countryside. This is her field of expertise, this is the chance she’s been waiting for, and this case could make her name known across the world. But therein lies the danger. Emma left this same town fourteen years ago and has taken great pains to cover all traces of her past since then.

Places aren't haunted . . . people are.

But now something—or someone—is calling her back. And the more time she spends with her patient, the more alarmed she becomes that he knows the one thing about her that nobody is supposed to know.

Critic reviews

“Steadman once again brilliantly paces the action from the very first scene. . . . As in all good thrillers, lights unexpectedly snap out, a creepy house is hidden down a tree-woven lane, and long-buried secrets emerge. . . . A spellbinding thriller perfect for those dark and stormy nights.”Kirkus Reviews

“The elaborate plot, filled with seemingly impossible twists, drives to a suspenseful conclusion.”Publishers Weekly

“Twisty . . . a highly imaginative tale tinged with Hitchcockian tension and kinetic pacing . . . Steadman’s deliciously provocative novel dishes up enough questions to fill the entire space devoted to this review. She cleverly cloaks them in more mysteries, turns and shocking revelations.... Mr. Nobody and Emma Lewis, though invented, seem so real. Mr. Nobody turns out to be somebody, and his unmasking makes for a delightfully compelling story.The Washington Post

From Mr. Nobody to Something in the Water, it’s clear that Catherine enjoys an unhinged lead character. As long as you don’t try too hard to relate to the main character, you’ll probably have a fun experience. Otherwise you’ll be distracted by all the questionable choices they make... Enjoy the wild ride!

Along for the ride

As with her first book, she needs to tighten up her work. Too drawn out, especially the first half. Frustrating to listen to. If I had been reading this myself, I would have been flipping pages like mad.

Where's her editor?

This book is worth a credit. Developed characters, small details that come around toward the end great twists and turns highly recommended.

Excellent twister

I loved this book and I would have given it 5 stars but the ending was a bit anticlimactic.
The performance was spot on - which surprises me because authors are not typically great performers. Definitely worth your points.

Four and a half stars !

This story is captivating and suspenseful to the very end. I enjoyed listening to this story very much. I highly recommend it. I will certainly seek out her other books.

Capitvating

Very slow moving story… when the reveal happened, I almost felt like I just didn’t care anymore.

Still gave it 4 stars for being an unusual story;
not sure how UK healthcare differs in real life… but this would be a far fetched premise in the US.

Liked “Disappearing Act” better by this author

I love her as an author and I love her when she’s reading her stories. Excellent all around!

Loved it!

I loved Catherine Steadman’s other book, “Something in the Water.” This book did not disappoint! Catherine narrates her books and she does an outstanding job! I really enjoyed the small, woodsy, English setting and the psychology themes.

Perfect winter thriller!
