No Good Deed Goes Unpunished by E. James Harrison
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Source: Received to Review
Genre: Suspense
Book Description: Five years ago, U.S. Air Force pararescue jumper Garrett Shepherd saved a stranger's life. Now that man, Edwin Sprague, is dead-and he's left Garrett millions of dollars as thanks. But there's a catch: Edwin has a task for Garrett to complete that will double his money-if he survives. Edwin wants revenge from beyond the grave, and he wants Garrett to get it for him.
Garrett agrees to give the bizarre challenge one week of his time, but he's quickly pulled into a dangerous world of scandal, bribery, and secrets some would kill to keep hidden. He has attracted the attention of some very powerful people-people who have destroyed their enemies before and will not hesitate to do so again. With the help of a Navajo policeman and a beautiful lawyer, Garrett's investigation leads him deep into the Navajo reservation-but uncovering the information he's hunting for proves to be a deadly quest.
My thoughts: Wow! Just wow! What a thrilling book!
The story begins when a man is left for dead in the desert. Five years later family and a stranger are gathered for the reading of a will. That was when the reader discovers that Garrett Shepherd saved the life of Edward Sprague. Edward's final wish is that Garrett takes on a task that will gain revenge on the man responsible.
From the opening page, this book is full of action and suspense. I did NOT want to put this one down.

About the Author: Much to his dislike, E. James Harrison is not an Amazon or New York Times best-selling author. However, he is the author of five other novels, all of which his wife and mother really like.
Born in Salt Lake City, he learned to type in the seventh grade on an old Smith-Corona manual typewriter and has been pecking out words ever since. He somehow managed to graduate from college with degrees emphasizing public relations and creative writing and has spent most of his professional life writing magazine articles about such gripping subjects as Internet technology or has kept veterinarians on the edges of their seats with articles about the latest advances in goat, rabbit, and hamster medicine. Those thrilling achievements pale in comparison to the radio advertisements and TV commercials he has written encouraging people to upgrade to the latest mobile phone or calling plan.
When he isn’t putting words on paper for himself or others, he can be found boating and waterskiing with his family, working on the family ranch, flying an airplane, or traveling to see new things and meet new people.
He and his wife, Deborah, have two amazing daughters and an awesome son-in-law and are the proud grandparents of the four best grandkids in the world. He is not prone to hyperbole.
Thank you for sharing. This sounds interesting.
