When war veteran Aloysius Archer is released from Carderock Prison, he is sent to Poca City on parole with a short list of \u003ci\u003edo\u003c\/i\u003e's and a much longer list of \u003ci\u003edon't\u003c\/i\u003es: \u003ci\u003edo\u003c\/i\u003e report regularly to his parole officer, \u003ci\u003edon't\u003c\/i\u003e go to bars, certainly \u003ci\u003edon't\u003c\/i\u003e drink alcohol, \u003ci\u003edo\u003c\/i\u003e get a job -- and \u003ci\u003edon't\u003c\/i\u003e ever associate with loose women.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The small town quickly proves more complicated and dangerous than Archer's years serving in the war or his time in jail. Within a single night, his search for gainful employment -- and a stiff drink -- leads him to a local bar, where he is hired for what seems like a simple job: to collect a debt owed to a powerful local businessman, Hank Pittleman.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Soon Archer discovers that recovering the debt won't be so easy. The indebted man has a furious grudge against Hank and refuses to pay; Hank's clever mistress has her own designs on Archer; and both Hank and Archer's stern parole officer, Miss Crabtree, are keeping a sharp eye on him.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e When a murder takes place right under Archer's nose, police suspicions rise against the ex-convict, and Archer realizes that the crime could send him right back to prison . . . if he doesn't use every skill in his arsenal to track down the real killer.","brand":"OUATB","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47619113222399,"sku":"*R0011592*","price":4.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0487\/5550\/7364\/files\/23669793482735.jpg?v=1764721358","url":"https:\/\/shop.onceuponatimebooks.com\/products\/one-good-deed","provider":"Once Upon a Time Books AR","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
