About this listen

An ITW Thriller Award finalist.

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.

The Good Samaritan returns with a fresh cover. This version incorporates an exclusive epilogue; while this enhances the reading experience, the main narrative is unchanged from earlier editions.

I love a John Marrs book, right up my street, a bit dark, great storyline and a few jaw dropping moments. Kept me wanting more all the way through. Perfect for commuting.

Another great listen.

Highly recommend. Suspenseful and action packed. Kept me guessing and you really no get invested in the characters.

Excellent. Kept you guessing throughout!

I adore John Marrs and have been binging his books back to back… this is a good story but just a little too dark for my personal taste, having also suffered MH issues I think it’s a little too close to home

The darkest of dark

Voice and British accent tone and pitch of characters very well executed by the actors it adds personality to the narration

Characterisation

I enjoyed the book but did not have any empathy with the characters. Which I think is unusual that a book doesn’t have someone you connect with!
Hated she won, however the reading was good.

Lots of twists and turns
