A cleverly crafted plot and very engaging.
Many thanks to Level Best Books and to Netgalley for providing me with a galley in exchange for my honest opinion.

Intense, dark, and full of twists and turns, Katherine Ramsland’s debut novel I SCREAM MAN will keep you flipping the pages nonstop until you’re done. With a hurricane bearing down on them, forensic psychologist Annie Hunter and her team of sleuths must wade deep into the world of sex trafficking to rescue her kidnapped daughter and several other children, who are victims of a corrupt juvenile detention system. The suspense grows with the strength of the hurricane as she turns to a shaman and a medium for help, unsure who to trust in a hunt for evidence that will cripple the network. I highly recommend this book and I look forward to more from the author.

Many thanx to NetGalley, the author and the publisher for allowing me to read and reveiw this book

When I requested this book to read I did not realise there would be some paaranormal influences and therefore had some trouble in finishing! The plot and subsequent story left me rather cold but could understand this book being of interest to those enjoying his genre.

Can only award this book 3 stars.

Offbeat, not the usual investigation or the truly paranormal, but somewhere in between. Fans of the PI investigation genre will definitely get a little different treat, and those who go for the paranormal likely will go for it as well.

I loved the premise of this one and really wanted to love it but for me, it just didn't grip me the way I had hoped. I liked the writing and the characters but the paranormal elements lost my interest a bit. In saying that, that's purely a personal preference n I prefer quite realistic thrillers so this book was never really meant for people like me! That's my only real let down though and the actual plot and flow of the books was really good

I Scream Man by Katherine Ramsland.
The Nut Cracker Investigations.
When a boy vanishes under strange circumstances, forensic psychologist Annie Hunter collects her team of sleuths, the Nut Crackers. They link the boy to a network of powerful people, the “I Scream Men,” who gain political favors through a juvenile sex trafficking ring. As Annie tries to hide a victim they seek to silence, head predator Alder Plattman – nicknamed “Plat-eye” – snatches her young daughter. Relying on coded clues, some quirky allies, and the mysterious method of remote viewing, Annie sets out to rescue her daughter and cripple the criminal network. Among her associates is attorney Jackson Raines, a youth advocate whose brother stole the network’s secret records before he was murdered. As a hurricane bears down and Plattman chases Annie’s team, they race to recover this vital cache before he can find and destroy it.
I really enjoyed this book. Great story. 4*.
