Plot Summary of The Bad Samaritan
"
When the local vicar's wife befriends and even looks after a young Bosnian waiter whom
she's met while on a holiday, raised eyebrows are not the only reactions among the
parishioners. And it soon comes to pass that a murder is committed! With his usual
penchant for capturing the moment, Robert Barnard makes “The Bad Samaritan” a read
that is not to be missed. Barnard is a master at characterization and this book is no
exception. Once more, Detective Constable Charlie Peace and his boss Mike Oddie are on
the scene and before the book's over, their methodical--and sometimes entertaining--modus
operandi find the murderer. The author's fans will recognize this book as being “typical”
and new readers will, no doubt, want to sample more of his writing (and he's written more
than 25 novels previously!)
