Reece Nylander is a man with a lot on his mind. Born with the strange ability to see 'soul memories' - the memories left behind by the soul when it departs the body - he has seen a dozen different lives through the eyes of the deceased by the time he is old enough to talk.
Despite being innocent of any crime, the government locks Reece away in a secret underground prison called the Program. There, he learns to survive living with one hundred evil serial killers including Ratboy, Loco, Guill O'tine and the most malicious of them all - the Deacon.
When the inmates escape, Reece is faced with a disappear like smoke on the wind or use his telepathic power to clandestinely help the police recapture the killers.
Reece wants to do the right thing but he has one very big the police are hunting for him too because they think he is just as bad as the others...
Praise for The Memory Keeper from Richard Butler Script Consultancy (www.richardbutler.com.au): This is one of the best thrillers, if not the best, that I have assessed. The general structure is excellent, with a series of climaxes building up to a breathtaking finale... You have a lot of interesting people here, all well drawn. Claire and Reece are solid, believable people and the Deacon is shown as a classic example of a psychopathic killer. Equally frightening are the lesser villians, Ratboy etc.
Also by Evan Vaile and available on The Vavoo Islands Adventure, Japan Adventure and Himalayan Adventure.

Very original paranormal story.
Set in Melbourne Australia. There are strange happenings near the underground railway loop...
But the funny thing is... truth is stranger than fiction.
In 1973 as a young lad I worked as a laborer on the underground loop project. And we joked that it was built as a fallout shelter Incase if a nuclear strike.
I do remember that there was a “restricted” area that we had no access to...
And now this book comes up with a plot line around a secret “something” built under the underground loop.
The Author is from Melbourne too...
This is a good visual read, sometimes humorous.
Once the story unfolded, I could not put it down.
