Jim was on patrol...
The Nothing Man: A Survivor’s Search for the Truth by Eve Black
INTRODUCTION The Girl Who
“Is it any good?”...
Once he knew the book existed...
Every weekend, holiday and summer break...
— I — FROM THE DARK
— 1 — True Life
— 2 — Let’s Play a Game
The ringtone on Jim’s mobile phone...
Instead, he heard his father shouting...
The first thing Jim saw...
Jim had left The Nothing Man on the passenger seat of his car...
Jim lay awake in the dark...
— 3 — Dreamcatcher
Jim set the book aside...
They were on the living room’s window the following morning...
Jim could still smell it, that vomit...
— 4 — Night Terrors
Jim woke up with a start...
The shopping center was busier than it had been the day before...
— 5 — Westpark
Beep-beep...
Puzzled, Prendergast called out...
It was strange...
He was at the end of the hall...
— II — AMONG THE SHADOWS
— 6 — Aftermath
Jim yawned...
— 7 — Blind Witness
Jim was wide awake now...
— 8 — That Night
Jim took his pencil...
I told all this to Ed and then added a disclaimer...
In six months, no day at Centrepoint had passed as slowly as Thursday did...
When not sat in front of a television camera transmitting live to the nation...
The room erupted in applause...
Danielle asked the audience to give Eve a round of applause...
— 9 — Connection
The words swam in front of Jim’s eyes...
The idea had come to him in July 1990...
— 10 — Password
— 11 — The Nothing Man
Jim was so engulfed in rage...
Acknowledgments
His name wasn’t there...
Friday mornings were the busiest at Centrepoint...
By the time Jim got back to the house...
He found a pair of black sweatpants...
He stuck to back roads and secondary routes...
The house in Bally’s Lane had had a conservatory door that wouldn’t lock...
He checked the living room first...
He shoved the butt of the gun into the side of her neck and whispered...
ONE YEAR LATER
Katie lies awake...
