Like John Grisham and D.W. Buffa, award-winning author J.D. Trafford created a smart legal thriller that keeps the reader turning pages.
Michael Collins burned his suits and ties in a beautiful bonfire before leaving New York and taking up residence at Hut No. 7 in a run-down Mexican resort. He dropped-out, giving up a future of billable hours and big law firm paychecks. But, there are millions of dollars missing from a client's account and a lot of people who want Michael Collins to

Michael Collins is hot, and Kermit Guillardo is a riot!,
While most people will fall in love with Michael Collins (he’s a smart, sexy, save-the-day kind of guy with the ‘damaged bad boy’ thing going on that is irresistible in a beach-read like this), I just have to put a word in for his side-kick, Kermit Guillardo. Kermit is a Vietnam Vet who is just so crazy, that you begin to think that he’s an actual person – who could make this kind of stuff up? From his bad breath beach-bum self in the opening scene, to trying to be Michael’s legal assistant in New York City, Kermit is a loyal, funny, far out character, just waiting to be played by Morgan Freeman. (Matt Damon as Collins, of course.) The big city law factory is eerily accurate, and the surprise ending will thrill every disheartened lawyer who wishes she had the courage to do the same as Michael Collins. Grab a margarita, and enjoy!

|Loved this,
This summer I was looking for something new and had a hard time finding it. Then I stumbled onto “No Time to Run”. All I can tell you is it’s the best .99 cents I have spent in a very long time. It was fast paced, the characters had real depth (I agree with the other review on those points), and I didn’t see the end coming. Simply, I just loved it. Thank you Amazon — yet again you provide me content that comes out of nowhere and surprises the hell out of me. I hope Mr. Trafford writes more books soon. Definite talent!

|burn away,
This book had me from the initial summary; we all want to burn our ties! But of course life is never that easy, and Collins (reluctant superlawyer) heads back to the action. If you’re reading reviews on this, you probably enjoy legal thrillers quite a bit. Go download the book already.
If you are new to the genre, No Time To Run is a great place to start. Fun, well-paced, and with the feel of a style that might include future books at some point, this is a great one to own. Also, digital publishing is doing some really cool things allowing authors to make their work available for only 99 cents(!). I am pretty new to the digital book scene, and if you are too, it’s important to know that Amazon does not limit Kindle books to the Kindle. You can read them on your computer, too, once you download the free Kindle for PC/Mac, including highlighting, bookmarks, syncing and so forth.
