Entertaining, Endearing and Interesting

I have to confess I picked up this book on an audible suggestion, and I had no idea who Joe Kenda is or anything about his show. I liked him instantly and his no-BS way of telling stories. I listen to a lot of true crime and the authors tend to dance around things and rarely express their opinions or feelings on them. Joe isn't like that, he'll tell you exactly what he thinks of something - swear words and name calling included. It's refreshing, and at times, hilarious.

He has a vulnerability behind his tough cop attitude and short fuse, and it becomes more prominent when he talks about some of the real distressing cases. You can tell how seriously he took his job. Also interesting to hear his measured opinions on citizens owning guns.

The stories were all really interesting. Some were damn heart breaking.

He's got a new fan in me, though the TV show is ending I plan to binge it all. I hope he makes another book. He was so interesting and it was good to hear the complexity of managing this type of work along with a family.

Phenomenal, Captivating, Sincere & Well Balanced.

This book is a wonderful testament to the horrors and humors of police/detective work. There is a perfect balance of ups and downs that allows this book to be more sincere in it's brutality then anything I have seen before. The way it is written gives you a clearer view of what it's like to be in his shoes then the television show couple ever hope to accomplish.

This is an adult read, approachable by most while still appreciated by those in the field, yet it was totally written for him as an ode to the absolutely whole hearted impact of detective work, as well as the complete hold it has over your life and psyche, both while on the job and long after the uniform is hung up.

Definitely give this a read if you like true crime, if you watch homicide hunter, if you work in the field, if your want a good psychological horror story or if you just want some advice on how to be a better criminal, lol

Great audio book!

Big fan of Joe Kenda and the Homicide Hunter series. Got this book back in January and have listened to it over a dozen times. Joe is a great narrator. I highly recommend getting this one as it recounts tales on how he came to be a Homicide Detective and such. 10/10!

Truly entertaining and addicting to listen to

I have enjoyed homicide Hunter a lot and love Joe Kenda. When I realized he was narrating his own book I had to get it. I could not stop listening to it and finished too quickly. I love Kenda's cop humor and I honestly enjoy listening to his voice. I hope he writes another!

BEST AUDIOBOOK EVER

I've listened to a truckload of audiobooks. This one was pitch perfect. I had never heard of Joe Kenda before but I love true crime. I saw this one had a bunch of great reviews so I got it. I was riveted. Not only does this guy have incredible stories to tell but he's a phenomenal narrator. He commands respect and he deserves it.

Real talk from a real cop! Couldn't put it down!

Thank you Kathy for nagging Joe to write this book! I absolutely loved it! The stories were raw and sometimes gruesome, sometimes involving horrific acts against children. Joe Kenda tells it like it is, but there were times I found myself laughing because of his dry cop humor. A really great read for fans of his show "Homicide Hunter".

Gritty with dark humour

This book is based on real life events. Theres a jaded tone to the book, one that all cops have. There are horrific cases and stunning cases. all told matter of factly. It's not for the faint of heart but we'll worth the listen.
