New Hallmark Mystery Movies and a Netflix book to movie - Good Sam by Dete Meserve

Happy Valentines Day. I hope you are spending the day with someone or doing something you love.

Here's what's coming up on Hallmark Movies and Mysteries for February.

Sunday 2/16/20 8 p.m. CST

Dead Over Diamonds: A Picture Perfect Mystery starring Alexa PenaVega, Carlos PenaVega and Erik Estrada 

About: Photographer Allie and Detective Sam's investigation into a priceless stolen necklace leads to danger and an unexpected death.

Sunday 2/23/20 8 p.m. CST

Riddled With Deceit: A Martha's Vineyard Mystery starring Jesse Metcalf and Sarah Lind

About: Former detective Jeff Jackson teams up with Dr. Zee Madeiras to track down their friend's missing emerald brooch, a thief, and also... a murderer.

I stumbled upon this book and author on FB. Then I saw it had been made into a Netflix movie so dialed it up and watched it this week.

Good Sam (Kate Bradley Mystery #1) by Dete Meserve

Good Sam

About: 
"After years covering murders, disasters, and tragedy for Los Angeles TV news, Kate Bradley knows that violence and cruelty are everywhere and that good is hard to find. When she is assigned to cover a story about ten people who have each found $100,000 in cash on their front porch, Kate is intrigued by the anonymous Good Samaritan, dubbed Good Sam, who is behind it all.

As interest in the extraordinary gifts sweeps across the country, Kate finds the elusive Good Sam and her exclusive interview with him thrusts her into the national spotlight. Even as his message captivates viewers and wins ratings, Kate suspects he may not be all he claims to be and that the real Good Sam is still out there.

Searching for answers, Kate unravels the powerful and unexpected reason behind the mysterious cash gifts. The true identity of Good Sam becomes the biggest surprise story of her career, turning her personal and professional life upside down."

I haven't read the book, but really enjoyed the movie. There are several twists and surprises. No, no one gets murdered but it is a mystery. If your Valentine likes mysteries, this would be a good movie to watch, mystery and some romance. 

There are two more books in this series; Perfectly Good Crime and The Good Stranger coming out May 20, 2020. 

Another of her books is a stand alone, The Space Between, which is on my TBR list.

About:  "After presenting a major scientific breakthrough to a rapt audience across the country, renowned astronomer Sarah Mayfield returns home to a disturbing discovery. Her husband, Ben, a Los Angeles restaurateur, has disappeared, leaving behind an unexplained bank deposit of a million dollars, a loaded Glock in the nightstand, and a video security system that’s been wiped clean. The only answers their son, Zack, can offer are the last words his father said to him: keep the doors locked and set the alarm."

I will let you know what I think. Sure sounds good.
