My Review
No Good Deed is a thriller which feels like a pulp - in a good way.

A white collar office worker finds a suitcase full of women's underwear with instructions to contact the owner should it be found. When Francis makes the call, the last thing he expects is to be thrown head first into a James Bond cloak and dagger fight for his life - and that of the mysterious suitcase owner. 

There's some interesting tech concepts in No Good Deed but the action revolves around Francis and his good deed which lands him in a bad situation. 

The bullets and brawls are laced with sharp dialogue and equally sharp scenes of pure adrenaline; there's a cabby car chase which is particularly entertaining and showcases the sense of urgency omnipresent throughout the book. 

My rating: 4/5 stars. Side note - the cover doesn't do this book justice!
