Publisher's summary

The hero of Hunter - number-one Kindle thriller best seller - is back in action!

He sought peace in the tranquility of nature. But can he tame the violence in his own nature?

At a cabin in the Allegheny National Forest, Dylan Hunter and Annie Woods seek to heal the wounds from their ordeal at the hands of a twisted psychopath. And to build a life together, Dylan promises Annie that he'll abandon his violent ways.

But ideological zealots and Washington's political elites have conspired to terrorize and plunder the hardworking locals. These victims have no protector against the bad deeds of the powerful and privileged.

Except for one man.

A man as ruthless and violent as they.

A man committed to absolute justice.

Because Dylan Hunter cannot walk away - not even if it costs him the woman he loves.

Another Great Hunter Novel

If you could sum up Bad Deeds in three words, what would they be?

Stay eternally vigilant.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Bad Deeds?

The ambush in the parking garage wherein four guys jumped Hunter.

What about Conor Hall’s performance did you like?

Once again Hall's narration keeps the characters distinct and interesting. In the past my favorites were Dick Hill, Lou Diamond Phillips, Scott Brick and George Guidall. Now Conor Hall has joined the group.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Keep your eyes and ears open!

Any additional comments?

Very much looking forward the next book.

Meh... good and bad

Decent book for the most part. Most of the action is enjoyable. The cheesy romance novel sections are terrible. Just stick to the action.
The narrator must love Christian Bale as Batman, because a lot of his characters sound like him. He is awful.

Exciting, suspenseful and thought provoking

Political corruption and short falls in the justice system causes Dylan Hunter to once again be drawn back into his vigilantly ways; this not only puts him and others in danger but it also causes problems in his personal life. The complex relationship between Annie and Dylan is captivating and the edge-of-your-seat tension the author and narrator creates makes this audiobook difficult to put down. It is a well written, very exciting thriller that follows on well from book one. It can be read as a stand alone but if you read the first in the series prior to this one, you will get a lot more out of it.
Not only is this a great sequel to Hunter, but it also examines the emotions and costs of personal principles/honour vs commitment to loved ones. The points raised and dilemmas faced by the protagonists makes you think, make you consider which one would come first in your life; could you resist following your principles, even if doing so risked your relationship with your loved one? I'm not sure which would be harder to live with, compromising your principles or potentially causing irrevocable harm to your relationship! This story leads you on a complex, suspenseful journey that blurs the lines between right and wrong. Is there such a thing as justifiable homicide or is murder always murder, even when the law has failed us? If we condone individuals taking the law into their own hands, even if it seems the more moral thing to do, are we not taking one step closer to eventual anarchy?
Once again the narrator did an excellent job, bringing to life the characters and infusing emotion into the narrative. The characters individual personalities were easily identified and very well portrayed. I look forward to enjoying the next book in the series. I received this audiobook from the author at no cost in exchange for an honest review.

Awesome!!

Great second book!! Very excited to read the next one!! Keep the books coming, Robert!

Number 3 ???

Great continuing story, looking forward to trilogy. Hope it's coming soon. I've been waiting for it too long. I've reread and listen to the stories a few times... I hate to rush authors but it is grating on my imagination for the next one...hurry please..

Any additional comments?

Bad Deeds is the second book in the Hunter series by best-selling thriller writer and award-winning investigative journalist Robert Bidinotto. His debut novel into the Fiction genre, Hunter: A Thriller was a tremendous success and this is the much awaited sequel. If you want, you can check out my review for Hunter: A Thriller here, on Audible, I enjoyed the book very much and compared it to Without Remorse by Tom Clancy.

The story opens with an event that also took place in the first book, but seen from a different perspective. I won’t say anything else in regards to this plot line. After that we join the two main characters, investigative journalist Dylan Lee Hunter and CIA operative Annie Woods, as they spend some well-deserved R&R at a secluded cabin in the Allegheny National Forest. As in their previous adventure, the two are deeply in love and are making plans for the future. Mr. Bidinotto turns on the romance to the max and manages to create some really special moments. The two lovebirds are very happy, but things are about to change.

When the couple ventures into the civilized World for a cup of coffee, they are pulled into something that will threaten everything they’ve worked for so hard, the mutual trust and their ideals as human beings. There is a suspenseful fight scene reminiscent of a Jack Reacher novel, a great trip down memory lane for one of our characters, a group of eco-terrorists, corruption, politics, mysteries, murders and payback.

Bad Deeds is a Thriller first and foremost, filled with mystery and non- stop action, peppered with romantic moments and driven by a great story and amazing characters. I really loved how Robert Bidinotto evolved the character arcs for Dylan, Annie and Garrett, enriching them with every occasion. They all really feel alive and real. The plot is much more complicated than in the previous book, with lots of twists and turns, while the simple black and white / bad vs. evil aspects from Hunter aren’t as easily distinguishable in this one.

I read over 650 books in the last 10 years and I’m glad that these two thrillers by Robert Bidinotto situated themselves in my personal top 25. Mr. Bidinotto writes like the old masters of Suspense and Espionage, I can’t help but to put him alongside names like Tom Clancy, Robert Ludlum and Vince Flynn.

The audiobook version of Bad Deeds is performed by Conor Hall and like with Hunter: A Thriller he did a great job with the narration. He becomes mesmerizing after just a few seconds, reading with talent and passion, giving life to the characters, immersing the listener into the atmosphere with different voices, accents and acting appropriately, as each situation arises.

As I told you before, the Hunter series by Robert Bidinotto is the only experience I had with Conor Hall, but it is enough for me to consider him one of the best voices in the Audiobook Industry with a bright and promising future in front of him.

I’m looking forward to Hunter #3 and to more audiobooks performed by this great narrator.

REALLY great story line!

Terrific story, thrilling, seductive, and spy-like! Loved it! Wonderful performance. I can hardly wait for more books in the Hunter series.

Good story

I enjoyed listening to this story, however, the ending was not clear. So I'm left confused. Maybe it's me and I forgot some earlier parts.

Thriller, romance & action!

Loved the story! Dynamic characters and fast moving plot provided an edgy backdrop for the continued romance from book 1. Would love a book on Grant Barret! He's such a great side character. Narrators deep voice was masculine and lent the story a cool big and hunky vibe; perfect for the special ops background.
