About this listen

When murder is your business, solving the case is personal …

The Homicide Hunter’s riveting debut novel proves that fiction really can be stranger than truth …

All Is Not Forgiven is the debut crime novel by television star Joe Kenda, a former homicide detective, whose hit series Homicide Hunter and Homicide Hunter: American Detective air on Investigation Discovery, the #1 true crime channel available in more than 80 million homes.

In this first novel, the rookie Det. Kenda investigates a 1975 case that begins with the murder of a beloved Colorado philanthropist and society figure whose husband, a gambler and womanizer, appears to have an air-tight alibi.

Mentored by his veteran partner Det. Lee Wilson, a former Nashville singer turned skilled investigator, Kenda’s case quickly attracts attention from the FBI, CIA, and Interpol, for its similarity to a string of killings involving wealthy married women. All the murders appear to have been committed by a hired professional whose trademark is the use of an unusual form of lethal ammunition that leaves no trace.

Detectives Kenda and Wilson travel across the country, following leads to Las Vegas and a mob “made man” pit boss who moonlights as a matchmaker for hit men. In this first extraordinary case, the detectives join a full law-enforcement blitz to track down a twisted killer who has made murder his business.

Critic reviews

"Narrated skillfully by Bradford Hastings, Tim Campbell, and Kenda himself, the audiobook benefits from their ability to produce a variety of voices for the fascinating cast of characters. At its core, the story focuses on a hit man who murders rich wives at the behest of their husbands, but it is the other characters whose personalities make the audiobook so satisfying, including veteran detective Lee Wilson, other police and FBI agents, and various mob underlings."

I actually got aprehensive when I saw this book was based not fully based on a factual case as that is what we are used to from this Homicide Hunter...but the Lt Joe Kenda has now not just entered the world of ficton he has smashed it.... he is literally "killing it" with this book and boy he does it with a bang. Thankyou for this book. I can not stop listening. All the policeman become three dimensional characters and the killer is written in a eerie stream of conciousness. we also get a feel for the beauty and the secrets hidden in the colorado landscape. This is a masterpiece.

THE RACONTEUR DOES IT AGAIN!

Very enjoyable

Balanced and well written. Characters have depth and story line keeps your interest. Along the same narrative as Joe Kenda’s documentary and other two biographical books. I know he is getting on but I hope to listen to future books of his. Fiction certainly also suits Kenda. Great effort! More please.

Can absolutely recommend
