Welcome!


Welcome!! My name is Paul Lappen. I am in my early 60s, single, and live in Connecticut USA. This blog will consist of book reviews, written by me, on a wide variety of subjects. I specialize, as much as possible, in small press and self-published books, to give them whatever tiny bit of publicity help that I can. Other than that, I am willing to review nearly any genre, except poetry, romance, elementary-school children's books and (really bloody) horror.

I have another 800 reviews at my archive blog: http://www.deadtreesreviewarchive.blogspot.com (please visit).

I post my reviews to:

booklore.co.uk
midwestbookreview.com
Amazon and B&N (of course)
Librarything.com
Goodreads.com
Books-a-million.com
Reviewcentre.com
Pinterest.com
and on Twitter

I am always looking for more places to post my reviews.

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.
