* WalkingShirtlessScene: Thomas either takes his shirt off or has it torn off several times in the book.



* ConvenientlyAnOrphan: Subverted to a degree in that [[spoiler: Dassalia is the reason most of the cast are orphans]] but there are still a lot of orphans in the cast.

''Nameless'', the first novel by Creator/MatthewRossi kicks off his Nameless series.

Thea Mendel is living in her car because her mother's ghost is haunting her house and may have killed her father. Thomas Willrew survived a car accident that killed both his parents and changed him. They meet and fall together into a world of ghosts, magic, monsters and wickedness called up by a woman who wants Thomas dead, and Thea worse than dead. The magical chaos soon drags in Thomas' best friend Bishop, Thea's cousins Joe and Seri, and Dasslia's unwilling agents Morgan, James and Byron. This woman, Dassalia, is tied into both of their pasts and the deaths of their parents, and together Thea and Thomas managed to end her plans and fall in love.
