Seth Beauman sufre desde hace tiempo de insomnio, por eso tiene una rutina nocturna: apenas su esposa se va a dormir, toma el directorio y marca números al azar esperando hablar con alguien.

Durante una de sus crisis llama a los Samaritanos, un grupo de ayuda telefonica para personas que quieran quitarse la vida, pero las lineas se cruzan en el preciso momento en que Seth digita su numero. Hadley supone que se trata de un operador de la asociacion y conversa un buen rato con el, encontrando finalmente el apoyo que busca. Acuerdan hablar el dia siguiente y el que sigue hasta que este juego aparentemente inofensivo se convierte en citas y encuentros casuales. Esta historia de amor disfuncional dara un giro perverso cuando Seth lleve a Hadley a su casa y alguien mas se involucre.Oscuro y provocador, Buenos samaritanos es un thriller sin respiro que se adentra en lo mas cruel de la naturaleza humana; una impecable mezcla de suspenso, crimen y el mas perverso domestic noir que se haya imaginado.

Nine people arrive one night on Chelsea Bridge. Theyve never met. But at the same time, they run and leap to their deaths. Each of them received a letter in the post that morning, a pre-written suicide note and a page containing only four words: Nothing important happened today. That is how they knew they had been chosen to become a part of The People Of Choice: A mysterious suicide cult whose members have no knowledge of one another. By the morning, People Of Choice are appearing around the globe: a decapitation in Germany, a public shooting at a university in Bordeaux; in Illinois, a sports team stands around the centre circle of the football pitch and pulls the trigger of the gun pressed to the temple of the person on their right. It becomes a movement. A social media page that has lain dormant for four years suddenly has thousands of followers. The police are under pressure to find a link between the cult members, to locate a leader that does not seem to exist. But how do you stop a cult when people dont know theyre members?
