"Hear no evil . . . See no evil . . . Speak no evil . . .” Now there's one more evil to avoid. Do No Evil by Harold J. Fischel is a realistic fiction novel with a genre mix of romance, action, and adventure that will appeal mostly to older teenagers and adults with an interest in action adventure and romance stories. The story follows Jason Housten, a young man raised by his mother, with a millionaire for a father. Jason is driven by his career without concern for the numerous broken hearts he leaves in his wake due to his lack of commitment. This all changes when Jason's flight is hijacked by his neighbor's daughter, Ibby. Jason manages to rescue both Ibby and other females from sexual slavery. This climax forces Jason to choose between the women he currently knows/is seeing.

Do No Evil really surprised me with how it seamlessly included so many different elements together in a way that made for an amazing read. While I enjoyed all of Do No Evil, my favorite part was the beginning when Jason and his mother help Catherine after she flees from her step father, who she at first thought was just supporting her after her mother’s death, but instead was trying to get her drunk in order to force her into sex. Do No Evil is a well written novel with a good plot, romantic developments, character growth, and a well-crafted plot without any holes.

"Hear no evil . . . See no evil . . . Speak no evil . . . " Now there's one more evil to avoid. Do No Evil by Harold J. Fischel is the perfect example of what happens when you are careless of others' feelings. Some of your innocent decisions can ruin someone’s life too. The story follows Jason Housten, who lived with his mother after his parents got divorced. He is a brilliant man, just like his father. But there is one thing; he leaves a trail of broken hearts behind him. He loves women and then he leaves them. His high school sweetheart is still in love with him. Catherine supports him because she loves him and he does not care for that.

When his neighbor’s daughter, Ibby, is brainwashed to hijack a plane he just happens to be on, Jason had no idea that this single event would be a catalyst for a chain of events that will change his life. He helps Ibby understand the truth and now the poor girl is in love with him. Kristy, the woman he sees casually, has feelings for him and when she tells him this, he is finally forced to recognize what he must do now. He needs to make a choice, but who will he choose?

This is a good novel. I loved the characterization and development of the characters. Jason is a very hard character to like. He was a relatively good man, but some of his attributes just grated and this is the reason why I liked him so much. He is a well-rounded character, he is very human and that makes him relatable. I liked reading his responses because they were real and what most of us would have come up with. This really is a good read and deserves all the praise it can get.
