Joe King Oliver is a PI who used to be a cop. He was setup on a bogus charge that landed him at Rikers Island where he was put in solitary to prevent other prisoners from killing him. 90 days later, charges were dropped but he could not go back to the force and his wife, who didn't stand by him, is out. Ten years later, he is a private investigator but still a broken man. He lives for his teen daughter and is doing an ok job of keeping it together. When a young attorney comes to him for help, he sees a way to discover who set him up while helping another with a "bad cop" problem. With a cast of interesting supporting characters, this is standard for Mosley which means better than most others. Dion Graham's narration adds a lot to the story.
