Summary

Across the bottom of the screen the ticker tape announced in large black letters 'Governor Reynolds Murdered'. Apparently his body had been discovered earlier that morning, lying in his garage. He had been shot twice. One shot to the upper chest, the other hitting his shoulder. 'Police believe that the weapon used was a 38 revolver,' the reporter said. Kendall froze. Anthony Shaw had also been killed by a 38 calibre bullet. Kendall was not quite sure of what it all meant. What connection was there between Anthony Shaw, and the State Governor, and the business mogul, Ian Duncan. And what about Senator Mackenzie? Where did he fit in? And who or what was Latimer? Only a short while ago Kendall was a small time private detective , a Private Eye, investigating an insignificant little murder with no clues, no witnesses, and no motive. In fact, no nothing. Now he had so many pieces of a puzzle he didn't know how they fitted together. He didn't even know if they all came from the same puzzle.

The Mackenzie Dossier


A very interesting story and had an understandable plot especially looking at today's politicians. It is fiction but it feels like it will happen IRL.

How much of this story is true?

John Holt the author is amazing, he can take any fiction and make you think that it’s a true story.
In fact I wouldn’t be surprised at all with all the corruption in this world that this story or stories similar to this have happened many many times!
And as usual choosing Steve Campbell for narration was an excellent choice, he aced it!

This audiobook is absolutely fully recommended for all.



In exchange for an honest review I’ve received this audiobook.

The Mackenzie Dossier

I liked this book,for the most part.I found the monotonous banter by the main characters rather annoying.It just seemed to go on and on at times.The story was good.Shortening it may have made it better.The end just baffeled me. Steve Campbell was a fine narrator. I was given this book by the narrator,author or publisher free for an honest review.

The Mackenzie Dossier

Wow. This book can get a bit confusing with all the different stories going on. Especially the ones that look like they have nothing to do with the others. It is very interesting listening to all that was happening and then at the end it all gets tied together in a pretty little bow. Fantastic ending. Narration of this book was down very well too.

Political & Crime Thriller

Centering on a character who strives for power through manipulating others and knows no bounds to acquire his influence. An interesting story which, at times, is a little over explained rather than allowing the listener to fill in the gaps and use their own imagination. Worth getting the authors next novel.

Really is this fiction or based on a true story.

This was such a different story by John Holt and I found it very difficult to separate truth from fiction it just sounded so much like something that could happen. Yes it is a fiction story but so well written and narrated that it makes sense. I just got wrapped up in the political intrigue.

I was given a free copy by the author but this in no way impacted my review.

The Mackenzie Dossier

The Mackenzie Dossier is a Kendall book and just like the others that I have listened to, I liked this one. It's just a little too political for me though. And in some instances, it felt like I was listening to real-life and intriguing political-related news and gossips.

The narration was good and it helped enjoy listening to this book.

For those who like investigative and/or political fictions, this one is highly recommended. Kendall is a funny and entertaining detective.
