I Am The Night review

Synopsis:

The night is dark. My soul is darker.

Marcus Williams and Francis Ackerman Jr. are both killers. But while Williams is tortured by the deaths he has caused, Ackerman takes pleasure in his murders.

Williams is a former New York City homicide detective.

Ackerman is a serial killer.

And both men are about to become unwilling pawns in a conspiracy that reaches to the highest levels of US government. They will be plunged deep into a hellish underworld of murderers and killers. They will find that there is more that connects them than divides them... and that their lives depend on it.

My Review:

Loved this book, the first in the Ackerman thriller series. I Am The Night is a serial killer thriller that explores the relationship between good and evil and what makes a true villain or hero, with some gory murders and fun moments along the way. There were many twists and turns throughout the book but the final plot twist was excellent as it pulled together many clues and inconsistencies from the whole story. I actually really liked the character of Francis Ackerman as his multiple philosophical rants were actually very interesting and further exploration of his childhood and the making of his insane personality will be really exciting in future book, as well as his mysterious relationship with Marcus! Overall a really great book that satisfies both simple gore and murder fans as well as those who prefer some deeper meaning in their thrillers. Can’t wait to read the next one!

My Rating: 8/10

Review: A fast paced, twisty thriller that had me hooked, so much so that I devoured it in one day when I should be revising for my A Levels. I was expecting a murder mystery sort of book but the supernatural elements of this novel were something that I actually enjoyed, because the author managed to pull them off very well. The setting o
