Good Samaritans
Good Samaritans
SELECTED AS A BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE GUARDIAN, TELEGRAPH AND DAILY EXPRESS
`Totally addictive. Like Fight Club, only darker' S.J. Watson
`I loved this book. Dark and at times almost comical, a great blend of crime thriller and the darkest imaginable domestic noir' Sarah Pinborough
One crossed wire, three dead bodies and six bottles of bleach...
Seth Beauman can't sleep. He stays up late, calling strangers from his phonebook, hoping to make a connection, while his wife, Maeve, sleeps upstairs. A crossed wire finds a suicidal Hadley Serf on the phone to Seth, thinking she is talking to The Samaritans.

And someone is watching...
Dark, sexy, dangerous and wildly readable, Good Samaritans marks the scorching return of one of crime fiction's most exceptional voices.

`Carver weaves these strands together for an unsettling but compelling mixture of the banal, the horrific and, at times, the near-comic, wrong-footing the reader at every turn' Laura Wilson, Guardian
`In this frantic read in sheer overdrive, Carver appeals to the worst voyeur in all of us and deli
