Resumen del Editor

Tom Kendall had been with the 32nd Precinct, New York Police Department, for just under 10 years. But now he wanted a change. Now he wanted to start his own private detective agency.

He had grand ideas. He wasn’t interested in just any old case. Oh no, he would handle only the big-time cases, the expensive ones. He would be able to take his pick, the ones that he wanted, where the stakes were high and so were the rewards. He knew exactly the kind of case that he wanted.

Anything else would not do, and it would just be turned down flat.

Although a standalone novel, this is the fifth Tom Kendall novel.

It's Okay

I have read most of the books in this series. They can be read as a stand alone book very easily, I do find the fact that all of the books have had a different narrator a little strange. Most of the time the narrator stays the same and that gives the books a consistency. It also helps you relate to the main characters because they sound the same and your mind says oh I know them. The narrator for this book has a good voice and I enjoyed listening to him. Kolyn Marshall does a good job. The story line is okay. I was gifted this book from the author with the understanding that I would leave an honest review

A 5* read/listen.

Kendall: Kendall, Book 5. Kendall isn't a hero who is instantly likeable but he grows on you both him & Molly.
You can read this as a stand alone novel as it recalls the beginnings of Kendall PI.
This is a must read for anyone who liked "Columbo" . John Holt is masterful at this genre.
I was given a free copy of this audiobook at my own request, and voluntarily leave this review.

Love the character Molly

John Holt old fashion detective story tell how Kendall setup his private eye business. I feel that this book should’ve been the first book in the series but for some reason it is book5. Probably due to the order they was written in.

I love Molly character. I can just picture her guiding Kendall in his everyday life.

There is no corse Language in it, or sex scenes. Although there is some violence it does not go into great details. And because of this I feel that this story could be read by young adults as well.

This is John third book I have read and I have enjoyed it them all.

Narrator Kolyn Marshall again does a good job bringing the characters alive with their own individual voices.

This audiobook was provided by the author, narrator, or publisher free of charge for a honest, unbiased review.

Very good story

This tale is every bit as good as the others in the series. You can bet that all of them are very entertaining.

Suspense and Intrigue

The story involves a police officer seeking to develop his own private investigator service associated with high profile cases. The plot is suspenseful and held my interest with plenty of unexpected twists and turns. Although associated within a series of books, this particular story is the first that I have listened from this author and found it to serve well as a stand alone. Definitely a gooychoice for mystery and adventure lovers. I received this audio for the purpose of review and opinions and thoughts were my own and unsolicited

How it all began

Kendall and his secretary Molly have a solid working relationship in the first four books. Now comes book five titled Kendall to expand and fill in how Kendall started as a P. I. And where Molly comes into the story. Kendall is his usual lazy self but still manages to get the job done, albeit with the capable assistance of the driven Molly.
I really enjoyed this book and learning of the history of Kendall and Molly and how they came to be a great working partnership was a bonus.
The narrator Kolyn Marshall has a great voice, although I do admit that I was sceptical of a new narrator in book 5 but I soon overcame those feelings very quickly.
All in all an enjoyable listen and I would highly recommend this book.
I was given a free credit in return for writing a review for this book.

Don't know how I feel

This book takes place after the other books. Which doesn't make since to me why it's 5th in the series. There are sound issues in the beginning. The main character is so negative it drive me nuts! His train of thought made me crazy. Lots of repeat thoughts. But other than that I love the female partner and the mystery story is a good one.
