I Am Pain by Ethan Cross
The Ackerman Thrillers #3

I keep wondering how I have come to actually like a serial killer that has no compunction and even enjoys killing others…often in painful ways…and yet…that is exactly what I find I am doing when it comes to Francis “Frank” Ackerman Jr. He has perpetrated heinous crimes on others but also seems to have had an epiphany and be trying to change his ways…at least a bit. He is the son of a ruthless psychotic killer, the brother of a man that has a dark side but works on the side of right and is often caught in situations that are difficult for him as well as for others. I have no idea where this rather dark gritty sometimes gruesome series will lead but I can’t wait to find out in book four.

What I liked:
* Frank: a serial killer that may be redeemable(?)
* Marcus Williams: Frank’s brother who seems to be questioning much before this book begins. He finds himself in a whole lot of pain for a good portion of this story
* Maggie Carlisle: works with Marcus and is his romantic interest although not much romance was observed in this book. She seems conflicted.
* Stan and Andrew – part of the Shepherd group
* Learning more about Ackerman Sr. and just how twisted he was – also meeting his father who was also interesting and disturbing
* The plot and how it was developed – finding out what the Coercion Killer’s goal and motivation were and who he was
* The taking down of the mercenaries
* The creep factor that left me thinking about how twisted and dark some people are
* Being able to like Frank – a man that should be unlikable
* Wondering how Dylan will turn out
* Knowing that there will be a book four

What I didn’t like:
* Knowing what Ackerman Sr. did to his family and to others
* Realizing and being reminded of the fact that there are people in the world that could be like the bad guys in this book.

Did I enjoy this book? It kept me interested beginning to end – I could not put it down
Would I read more in tis series/ by this author? Definitely

Thank you to NetGalley and Head oof Zeus – Aries for the ARC – This is my honest review.
