Review: Good Sam

Good Sam by Dete Meserve
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

•••I listened to the Audible Audio Edition of this book•••



Laurel Schroeder’s performance was very evocative and enthralling. She conveyed a wealth of emotion that I would have missed had I just read the book. I loved the way she fleshed out the characters and gave them each their own unique voice. I will definitely be looking for more books narrated by this talented voice actress!

Who IS Good Sam Really?



This seems to be a stand alone novel.


Kate is a reporter and a senator's daughter. This has led her to always look for the truth and motivations behind anything and everything. Covering breaking news is her job... But also her passion. She wants to find the good in people if it is actually there. Unfortunately most of the time what she witnesses and reports on is tragic with no silver lining. When first assigned to the story of "Good Sam" she is annoyed and feels like she is being punished. That quickly turns into curiosity and intrigue as she delves deeper into the story. Why is someone leaving $100k in canvas bags with a sideways 8 staped on the side anonymously on people's porches? What does the 8 signify? How are these people connected? Or is it all random? Will she ever get to the bottom of this story? Will she be sorry if she does?



***This book is suitable for adult readers who enjoy modern literary fiction with a chick lit vibe filled with mystery and intrigue as well as plenty of suspense and a little action, adventure and romance tossed in for good measure :)
