not so idyllic

One Good Deed by David Baldacci; 2019;$29.00; 420 pages; Grand Central Publishing, New York, NY;978-1-5387-5056-8; checked out from Multnomah County Library, Hollywood; 8/16/19-8/19/19

Archer ends up in Poca City after a stint in the Army and a stint in prison for a crime he didn't commit.  His first day in town he is offered work as a debt collector.  As he pursues the debt he is caught in a vicious dispute between the two richest men in the small town, one who flaunts his wealth and the other who quietly acquires more and more.  Also involved are two women in Archer's life, his probation officer and the estranged daughter of one of the men.  Things good back and forth between the good and the bad for Archer.  

An exciting debut for a new series from David Baldacci that climaxes with a interesting twist.  Looking forward to more adventures with Archer.

10/10
