In this fast-paced historical thriller, the number one New York Times best-selling author introduces Archer, a WWII veteran forced to investigate a small-town murder - or risk returning to prison.
It's 1949. When war veteran Aloysius Archer is released from Carderock Prison, he is sent to Poca City on parole with a short list of dos and a much longer list of don'ts: do report regularly to his parole officer, don't go to bars, certainly don't drink alcohol, do get a job - and don't ever associate with loose women.
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.
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.
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.

Few stories lend themselves to audio better than thrillers. Listening gives you time to play detective and figure out the mysteries with the characters.

Whether you enjoy classic detective thrillers, or something more sinister, there are endless stories to choose from. Here are the 20 best thriller audiobooks to get you started.

Editor's Pick
Narration brings this high-stakes crime novel to life
"I took note of One Good Deed because it’s a standalone novel from David Baldacci, it’s set in 1949, and because the protagonist is a veteran *and* an ex-con. The fact that Edoardo Ballerini narrates the story, however, pushed it to the top of my must-listen list. His performance brings out the distinctiveness of each character, and adds depth and nuance, especially to the protagonist—what a great summer listen!"

I remember well when Luck Strike green went to war, when men wore their felt geotags and tipped them politely, and chauvinism was de rigueur for well-raised gentlemen.
Always enjoy this author.

It is set in post-World War II America, when heroes were everywhere ... but struggling to recover, cops were tough ... and many either corrupt or inept, and those with money influenced "justice" ... not unlike 2019!
A good, innocent, heroic veteran is railroaded into prison, gets paroled, and -- within days -- finds himself being accused of murdering the man who had hired him to collect a debt. Then things got worse for Archer!
The story is very well written (as are all of David's stories) and paint images of the cars, eateries, hotel rooms, and big, steel and chrome cars of the era. And, even with his descriptions of burgundy hat bands on brown felt Hamburg hats, the mind's eye tends to see the image in black and white.
Bringing this audio book to life is the exceptional narrative skills of Eduardo Ballerini. Each character's "voice" conjures an image that is enhanced by Baldacci's description of them. Each character seemed genuine and familiar.
One Good Dead is a great read! It is one that I will revisit very soon.
