In No Good Deed readers are drawn into the you-bet-your-company world of larger-than-life Dallas oil tycoon G.H. Sealy. Known only as "G.H." and renowned for his quick temper and quicker zipper, G.H. runs his business and personal life on his own terms. But his ability to do so is compromised one Sunday morning when he vanishes from his current lady friend's condo. Ripples from G.H.'s disappearance create a tsunami threatening to overwhelm both his family and his empire. His daughter Elizabeth, nominally the CEO of Red Chief Oil & Gas Co., the world's largest-next to the Saudis-family-owned oil company, is now at the helm and out from under G.H.'s thumb. Not content just to rearrange deck chairs on the Titanic, she tries to deal with her dysfunctional family and keep a mega-deal with foreign investors, who have their own agenda, from falling apart causing possibly fatal damage to Red Chief. Josh Loeb, Red Chief's outside attorney, is drawn into this maelstrom, charged by Elizabeth to find G.H.-who may not want to be found-or, failing that, figure a way to either get the deal closed without G.H., or kill it without Red Chief forfeiting a $40 million breakup fee, all while keeping Elizabeth's vindictive mother from destroying Red Chief on her own. Loeb is handed no rule book, no line-up card, no lifejacket. He soon learns that "awl bidness" people think that courtrooms and lawyers are for sissies. Every move Loeb makes leads him deeper into a world in which no good deed goes unpunished.
