Wow!

Leah Nachtnebel, not a monster but the dark hero that kills them. The anti hero we’ve all been waiting for. Dark, mysterious, composed and ruthless vs Liam, FBI agent, determined, dedicated and disciplined.
Who will be victorious?

This gripping page turner keeps you guessing the whole way through and the last 10% is utterly jaw dropping.

Loved it!

Thank you to NetGalley and Ashman Books for my advanced copy. Will 100% read from this author again.

I LOVED this story! A bad ass main character, who kills serial killers, a tenacious FBI agent and a myriad of twists! The story was very fast paced and will leave you guessing as to what happens next. I was shocked, utterly shocked at one of the twists and the ending blew me away! The only problem is that I can't wait for the 2nd book! I need it nowwww! Highly recommend if you love vigilante revenge stories, with a clever, female main character and justice being served.

Thanks to Netgalley and Ashman books for letting me read this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Ashman Books for the free e-ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Leah is a concert pianist by day and a sociopathic executioner of serial killers by night. She is on the spectrum, has a photographic memory and is a sauvaunt at everything she sets out to do. However, her most recent kill has put FBI agent, Liam, hot on her trail.

This is such a different criminal mystery! There is plenty of suspense, twists and turns. I also enjoyed the dynamic of Liam and Leah. They are both interesting characters. Looking forward to the next installment!

Highly recommend!

Thank you so much to NetGalley and Ashman books for this ARC!

This may be one of my most favorite books of 2023. The different POVs mixed with varying degrees of psychoanalysis took my breath away. And right when you think you know the twist, BAM. The ending also blew me away. I did not see most of this coming.

I was lucky enough to get early access to this book thanks to netgalley. I did really enjoy this book it kept my attention and had me wanting more. The plot was a twist on your normal serial killer story the main character was intriguing. I would say though there were some parts I wished had flowed better and had a little more time spent on it. I rated it a 4 ⭐ cause I do believe it was a good read... Just a ps might want to proof read it once again as I did find misspelled words.

I Kill Killers by S.T. Ashman
Publishing Date - 10/10/23
Rating (4/5) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you Netgalley and Ashman Books for this eARC. This one draws you in from the very first line! The main character, Leah, is a sociopathic killer who hunts and brutalizes serial killers. Dexter fans will definitely like this one! The ending was a little confusing but I think the author is continuing the series so that may clear up some confusion. I recommend this one to psychological thriller readers and fans of Dexter!

I kill killers by S. T. Ashman was a rollercoaster to read, and I absolutely enjoyed it, the book is
beautiful written and brings new Ideas to the Genre.
I kill killers is a novel with two main perspectives.
Leah's and Liam's. Leah is a cunning and Cold Woman who excels as a pianist as well as a hunter of those who have committed heinous crimes, While Liam is an FBI agent whose moral Compass points only true north. These two people are playing a game of cat and mouse as Liam is desperate to connect Leah to the Lady in Red.
Overall, the book was well paced, and my only real criticism is that, in my opinion, Leah didn't really take centre stage and I wish her perspective was the main one with little bits of Liam peppered in there. I give, I kill killers a 4-star rating!

Leah is a world-famous pianist....and also a serial killer of serial killers. Liam is the FBI agent who is determined to catch her.
Leah's character is complex, cold, and calculating. She has no remorse for killing serial killers.
Liam is a dedicated FBI agent who is divorced with a daughter. He always wants to do the right thing.
This novel is well written and will keep you engaged, with a great ending.
I highly recommend this book if you like disturbing, serial killer novels!
I can definitely see this becoming a series and I can't wait for the sequel!

"I Kill Killers" by S.T. Ashman is a must-read. It is by far the best thriller novel I have read this year. The riveting story kept me on the edge of my seat, biting my nails, and the spicy sex scenes kept me wanting more.


Leah Miller, a world-renowned pianist hailed as the second coming of Mozart, hides in plain sight as a killer of serial killers. Diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder with severe alexithymia, Leah could not feel intense emotions, which made her the perfect person to rid the world of the most gruesome serial killers. She is not only a musical genius, but she is always one step ahead of Law Enforcement with everything planned in exquisite detail.


Special Agent Liam Richter from the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit, dedicated to profiling and investigating serial criminals, is one of the lead agents investigating a man butchered in the woods. With white powder and scattered syringes at the crime scene, it appeared to other agents that this was a drug-related crime belonging to the Violet Gang Unit. The FBI uncovered the identity of the murdered man as the "College Snatcher," a serial killer who snatched and killed multiple college girls. Special Agent Richter had a gut feeling that his death was not cartel-related and felt like the evidence did not add up. With his determination, dedication, and discipline, he continued to investigate the case even after the case was closed and was hot on the heels of discovering Leah Miller's true identity.

Black and white, right and wrong, and good and evil become blurred by Leah Miller, the enigma. "Was she the monster or just the villain who killed them"? This book was exciting and fun to read. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys suspense or true crime. Do not be surprised when you become reverent of a serial killer!

A remarkable debut novel! The characters are well-developed though not necessarily likeable. None of them are whom they appear to be. If you are looking for a thriller with a complex but believable plot surrounded by lots of action, this book is for you. I couldn’t put it down. This book grabs you from the first page and doesn’t give you a moments rest until the last page.

Thank you to NetGalley and Ashman Books who provided me with a copy of this book. I am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

As a big crime thriller reader there’s nothing I enjoy more than reading about Serial killers. As the title suggests I Kill Killers is about a serial killer who kills yes you guessed it serial killers! So there was no way I was going to miss out on reading this book. Did I mention the crime scenes are very gory, brutal and violent? Well they are! so this book is definitely not one for those of a nervous disposition.

Leah is a celebrated concert pianist who see’s herself as judge, jury and executioner of those who have committed the most awful crimes. Liam is the FBI agent who is determined to catch her. The rights and wrongs of Leah's actions are explored, is she a heroine or villain? What sets her apart from the killers she hunts? Leah is a complex character, she’s cold, calculating, methodical in her execution of her victims, has no lack of remorse for the crimes she commits, but she’s absolutely fascinating.

Ashman’s pacing is spot on and at no point does the suspense waver thanks to a gripping game of cat and mouse. I liked the fact the story feels original compared to other serial killer thrillers, and let’s be honest that’s something that’s hard to find in this genre. I Kill Killers has so many masterfully constructed twists and turns that kept me guessing util the very end which, by the way, I truly did not see coming. Prepare to be seriously disturbed. A deliciously dark serial killer thriller.

Whenever someone wants a recommendation for serial killer fiction (It happens more often then one would think!) I always suggest Chelsea Cain’s Archie Sheridan and Gretchen Lowell’s series. For many years, since Cain has stopped writing the series, I’ve been looking for another that I’ve enjoyed as much, and with I Kill Killers by S.T. Ashman, I think I’ve finally found it!

It’s been awhile since I was disturbed by a book, and the opening kill had me gasping and reading bits out loud to my husband. After the opening pulled me in, what continued was a perfect game of cat and mouse between BAU Special Agent Liam Richter and the killer, who always seems to be one step ahead.

Even though the opening murder was intense, the story doesn’t focus on gruesome murders, but gives the reader well developed characters and lots of action via short chapters told from different points of view. I Kill Killers will be a book you won’t want to put down, and when you get to the twists at the end, I hope you are as delighted as I was with how great they were, and how perfect it sets up the next book.

Looking forward to recommending I Kill Killers to everyone, and to book two in the series!

I found myself loving Leah pretty early on as she reminded me of my girl Lana Myers from The Mindfuck Series. This entire book reminded me of that series, and that’s a big compliment! A book about female serial killers always wins for me.

The writing in this book was amazing. The book is written as a dual POV, with Leah and the FBI agent Liam. Leah’s POV was written in 1st person and Liam’s in 3rd person. This difference made the whole book. Reading the POV of a serial killer in 1st person made it a lot more personal and I really felt like I was inside her head. This made me understand how her mind works and made me love her even more.

The pacing was perfect. I read the entire book in 1 sitting and I never once got bored and wanted a break from reading.

The only reason this wasn’t a 5 star read for me was the ending. I thought it was a little bit anticlimactic, but there’s gonna be a sequel so I’m crossing my fingers it’s gonna make me change my mind about the ending!

If you love The Mindfuck Series like I do, you'll probably enjoy this book!

I will be posting my review on my Instagram and tiktok under the handle @norwegian_bookshelf

In a world where injustice is rife, I honestly admired the anti-hero in this book. Leah may be a killer, but she kills monsters who don’t deserve to live. 



This book had me at the get-go. As a fan of Criminal Minds and Hannibal, it gave me both the perspective of the person who kills and who wants to catch that killer. For me, that’s enough to make me read every page with eagerness. But the surprises in this book made it more of a page-turner and the ending makes me want to read more.



If you are looking for a crime and suspense thriller, this is the book you shouldn’t miss. No bullshit. It is a damn great read.

Absolutely fantastic! I could not put this book down. If you are looking for a good thriller that keeps you guessing from beginning to end then I suggest you read this.

The characters, storyline and writing style are superb. The only negative I have is that I have to wait for the second book!

Thank you NetGalley and S.T. Ashman for the chance to read this ARC for my honest review. I can’t wait for more!

Leah is a world-renowned pianist, but she has never felt emotions like others. People fly from all over the world to see her perform, but she feels nothing. Leah is also a killer who seeks out and murders bad people of the world. After her latest killing, she finds herself under the microscope of a tenacious FBI Agent. No matter when she does, he won’t let up. Can Leah pull off her biggest crime yet? Or will she finally be caught after all these years?
Okay, wow, I am still recovering from the mastery that is this book. I can confidently say that this is the best thriller that I have read all year. It is so good! I loved all the characters, and Leah was a real gem. Just such a great character. The writing was well done and kept me interested and engaged the entire time. The twists were shocking and not overwhelming, and they were great. They fit perfectly with the story, and the build up and anticipation were great. The pacing was also wonderful. I loved the incorporation of more current events into the story, it was really fun and made the book relatable. Be aware that there is a little gore towards the beginning of the book, and some sensitive topics were covered. I didn’t realize that this one was going to be a series but sign me up! I cannot wait to get more of these characters and the writing.

If you want a thriller that you will be thinking about for a long time, then check this one out! It’s just so good.

Thank you so much to Ashman Books, the author S.T. Ashman, @Booksbyashman, and Netgalley, @Netgalley for this e-arc in exchange for an honest review.

TRIGGER WARNING********
Violence, murder, sex, and torture

This is definitely one of those vigilante justice meets revenge books that will keep you totally on the edge of your seat and reading well into the day and night. I didn’t stop reading until the end. I forgot to cook dinner, wash dishes, and do laundry so this book got me in some hot water but it was well worth it.


Leah is a serial killer, heroine, serial killer and well all around bad ass. She is playing a cat and mouse game with the FBI. The Behavioral Analysis Unit to be exact. We start with special agent Liam Richter, Larsen and Richter’s partner Tony. The department is swamped with cases but there is one that needs attention now. That of a butchered body that has everyone thinking that it is the work of either drug mule or the cartel gang. However there are a few clues that have Liam thinking elsewhere.
Leah learned at a younger age how to hurt others who hurt her without carrying any remorse. Like the time she stabbed a young man with a pencil who was trying to tape her. This seems to be where she decides to take justice into her own hands.
SAC Larsen decides it is time to turn the case over but Richter just cannot seem to let it go. He decides that he will pursue this on his own time. Liam starts to uncover clues and thinks that he may have an answer to the body count but no one believes him. They all think this is no more than a gangs killing. He finds help in someone that he could not bring forward. Someone that he should not be talking to.
Leah goes on a date with someone whom the reader finds out is a serial killer. She does not wait to dispose of his body in a vile and gruesome manner. But he deserves it right? She does not stop there. She is a sleuth that finds her victims one by one with the ability to track them down in a way the precludes the FBI. However, they seem to be hot on her trail…..but can they catch her?
Ashman is one hell of a writer. Especially books of this genre and although this is his debut, I feel that this book is so much different than anything I have read before. The writing brought me in and I just could not put this book down. I guess the way the book ended though that we will be reading book #2 hopefully. I absolutely cannot wait. Thank you Ashman for sharing your amazing talents and keeping me up all night reading.


Thank you to NetGalley as well as the author and publisher for giving me the opportunity to read this book in exchange for my unbiased and honest review

This book follows the story of two very different narratives. One is from a world renown pianist who somehow finds herself caught up in a gruesome crime. The other is an FBI detective who is on the case to solve the murder of Mr. Harris. With each chapter, their stories intertwine and you are reminded justice isn’t always the same for everyone. This story was written so well and it was a under 5 hour read for me. Once I began reading I could not stop myself I needed to know what happened to Leah and Liam. I would 10000% recommend this book to anyone who loves a good twist at the end. I will say it ends on a cliff hanger, I can’t wait to get my hands on book 2!!

Thank you NetGalley & S.T. Ashman for the ARC of this book. It was truly a wild ride.

Wow wow wow!!! This book was absolutely incredible! I love crime thrillers and up until this book I have been missing the killer’s perspective. But this book gave me exactly what I was craving. It had me rooting for the killer and getting mad at the FBI agent the whole way, only to be shocked to the core by the ending. Left me wanting more and more the closer I got the end. I will absolutely recommend the book to anyone who is a fan of psychological crime thrillers and will be reading any sequel to come from this book!

I had to DNF this book as the writing just read a bit too novice. Also there was a bit about a house maid and then being Hispanic and made fun of the stereotype Hispanic religious house decor and jobs and that just sat unwell with me. Also servants quarters??? We’re calling them servants quarters and the Fmc is talking to an Alexa?? Odd.
