The Deadly Samaritan: Good Intentions, Tragic Results

 The Deadly Samaritan: Good Intentions, Tragic Results, Michael Geczi, 2023

 

Morristown, New Jersey is being menaced by a serial killer, but this is not your average serial killer. Drew McLogan is a former TV producer in Manhattan. He is visiting Stan Kaminsky, Morristown's Chief of Police (the two are old friends). After another body is found, and Kaminsky dies from a sudden heart attack, McLogan decides to stick around, and get involved.

 

Not everyone in town is happy that McLogan is playing amateur detective. Does he attract the attention of the killer/killers? Is there someone or something else behind the murders? Who is still alive at the end of the story?

 

This is an excellent psychological murder mystery. It has plenty of twists and good writing. It will easily keep the reader interested.
