Fractured Echoes: You can’t fight what you can’t remember.

Mick Holden is nobody special, a pub regular with a faded past, content to let Blackpool’s off-season gloom swallow him whole. But his quiet life unravels when he begins seeing things before they happen, television quiz answers, strangers’ movements, entire days. Events repeat. Faces vanish. And reality itself begins to rewrite the world around him. Drawn into the mystery is Alice Whittaker, a journalist who knows too well what it feels like to notice when no one else does. Together, they chase a trail of erased lives, forgotten streets, and time slipping sideways. The deeper they go, the more they realise: this isn’t déjà vu. It’s a system. One designed to forget. To survive, they must uncover what began beneath Blackpool’s crumbling facades before it swallows them, too. In this haunting, psychological tale, reality itself is the enemy. And you can't fight what you can't remember.

Where memories cannot be trusted

Mick Holden, a washed-out pub regular in off-season Blackpool, begins seeing the future—until time fractures, events repeat, and people quietly disappear from reality itself. Drawn together with journalist Alice Whittaker, he follows a chilling trail of erased lives and forgotten places, uncovering a system designed to make the world forget. This haunting psychological thriller turns reality into the enemy, proving that survival is impossible when memory itself can’t be trusted.

The author, J J Noad, masterfully builds a slow, simmering suspense that, once it reaches a full boil, completely immerses the listener and refuses to let go. Well-developed characters anchor an intense, carefully constructed mystery, while solid plot twists and rich detail keep the narrative unpredictable and deeply engaging. The unique and psychologically terrifying memory angle elevates the story, with dialogue that moves seamlessly alongside the action and character development, resulting in a mystery that is powerfully sustained from beginning to end.

The narrator, Kate Walsh, delivers a polished, confident performance, speaking clearly while capturing and projecting suspense with precision and intensity. Spot-on cadence and delivery draw the listener fully into the mystery, making it easy to connect with both the story and its characters.

This was an intriguing audiobook that kept the listener hooked from beginning to end!
