About this ebook
After serving fifteen years in the British Army, David Costello’s success has garnered him not only an inflated self-belief, but also resentment from his troop.
When he is thrust into a hostage rescue, Costello must not only free the captives, but also overcome his squad mates’ insubordination.
No Good Deed provides the backstory for one of the leading characters in the forthcoming science fiction novel The Alethean Legacy.

Author’s Note
This is a work of fiction. Characters, businesses, places, events and incidents are either the products of my imagination or used in a fictitious manner. Character names are something else. These were taken from people who I have met in my life (with their consent), because it adds a layer of realism. You won’t find a Max Power
or Jasper Selkuckle
in these pages. Any resemblance between a character and their namesake is purely coincidental, I only used their names.
The events in Northern Ireland are fictional, but some details are taken from actual events from the early 1990s. Again, this is to enhance the realism of the story.
This book is a prelude to my novel The Alethean Legacy, a story spanning three decades – which is also roughly how long these books have taken to write. Details of other short stories that build the Alethean
