Reader Buzz for Switch

A few people received a sneak peek at the opening chapters to Switch prior to final editing. Here's a few select comments of what they had to say:

"McKenzie is a fantastic storyteller – he really gripped me from start to finish. The dialogue is great and this does have the same polish and assurance of a young Dennis Lehane." —David Shelley.

"Wow! Loved it … desperately wanted more after racing through the first 130 pages. Fast, thrilling, gripping, scary…When can I read the rest?" — Gavin Hilzbrich



"This book is so cinematic . . . due to the punchy dialogue and the succession of crisp, sharp images which drive the narrative forward. I want to read more!" — Sam Eades



"This is absolutely brilliant! A very compelling read but I was upset when I got to the last page because I wanted more!" —Jeanette Slinger



"I can't stand crime novels that have a long preamble before getting to the action and this one certainly doesn't disappoint in that way. From page one it's straight in there, bish bash bosh and continues on in that vein, so you are frantically turning the pages to find out what happens next." — Sandra Hawe



"The material I read was mad, frantic, super quick and entertaining." — Martin Higgins



"Gripping… Explosive… Page Turning… And that’s only 140 pages in!!" — Darren Elliot



"This was great - I really wanted to read on. Very much made me think of Simon Kernick and Relentless actually - same kind of ordinary guy suddenly finding his life turned upside down when he just comes home from work... Decidedly scary and asks some very dark questions: just how far would you go to save your family?" — Sue Cook
