Publisher's Summary

She's a friendly voice on the phone. But can you trust her?

The people who call End of the Line need hope. They need reassurance that life is worth living. But some are unlucky enough to get through to Laura. Laura doesn’t want them to hope. She wants them to die.

Laura hasn’t had it easy: she's survived sickness and a difficult marriage only to find herself heading for forty, unsettled and angry. She doesn't love talking to people worse off than she is. She craves it.

But now someone’s on to her - Ryan, whose world falls apart when his pregnant wife ends her life, hand in hand with a stranger. Who was this man, and why did they choose to die together?

The sinister truth is within Ryan's grasp, but he has no idea of the desperate lengths Laura will go to...

Because the best thing about being a Good Samaritan is that you can get away with murder.

Revised edition: This edition of The Good Samaritan includes editorial revisions.

Unsettling!

This one took me a little while to get into but I really enjoyed it. Definitely not a 5 star like The One or the Marriage Act but still a well done story. It has some unsettling themes of s**cide so if that’s a trigger for you proceed with caution.

Ok first half

Second half went off the rails and was pretty boring. Love most of his books but not this one

Mixed feelings

I had to listen to this story twice before writing a review. In the simplest terms: I hated this novel so much that I actually liked it in the end. The characters drove me absolutely crazy, the story dragged several times throughout, the events that took place were bizarre, and the plot was so messed up at times I found myself entirely confused. Even with all that said, it was still engaging because it was so messed up.
