Robert "Butch" Bliss is not a man who goes looking for trouble. He's out of work, doesn't owe anyone money, and is happily living rent-free in the bungalow in Mrs. Chow's backyard. He did his time in prison, and he paid his debt to Mr. Chow, before the old man died. Life is simple and easy for Butch.

Until two guys try to rob a convenience store when Butch is buying beer. It looks like one of those "what are the chances?" coincidences, except Butch knows one of the robbers. The last time these two saw each other, there was blood. Now, there's bound to be blood again.

Butch discovers nothing in his life is as it seems when he gets caught up in family feuds, gang wars, and the attention of a fiery journalist with an attitude to die for. The Right Kind of Sinner is another entry in the Butch Bliss series of comedic crime novels by Harry Bryant.
