What a great clean, uplifting story! Everything is well defined from the characters to the newsroom to fast flowing rivers. Meserve puts the reader right in the middle of the action and emotion. Although I figured out who "Good Sam" was early on, I had a hard time putting the book down. It is not only a touching story but also about how news doesn't have to all "blood & guts", human interest stories can and should lead all newscasts. A Wonderful "Comfort Read"You've heard of comfort food. Dete Meserve has created a "comfort read". "Good Sam" is a book that soothes the soul, with mystery, intrigue, and romance.The heroin reminds us that we are assaulted daily by news featuring mans inhumanity towards man. As a reporter she thrives on this sort of feature story. When assigned a story she thinks is too fluffy she tries to reject it. But the story draws her in and we discover, along with her, that this story though the complete opposite of her usual feature, certainly isn't fluff. She becomes nearly obsessively intrigued as she investigates the mystery of mans humanity towards fellow man. I found it a refreshing; touching look at the heart of our society and it was enjoyable to hear about the kindness of others. This book gave me comfort and joy—knowing people are inherently good—by nature. We just have to have our hearts open to find it.I love this book!
