From AudioFile:

Caught, convicted, and his time served, Max Holman is devastated by the news of his son's murder on his first day of freedom. His life "outside" begins, not as expected, but with a driving need to solve the riddles of false answers, the unrecovered fortune of a bank heist, and LAPD police corruption. Christopher Graybill maintains a steady hand on the intrigue that keeps listeners guessing throughout. His portraits of Holman and his unlikely partner, ex-FBI bank squad investigator Agent Pollard, are clear and subtly insightful. There's surprising humanity in these two misfits, and it comes across in Graybill's narration. Several minor characters get delightful "bit part" treatment from Graybill, making them more memorable than their brief appearances in the story.
