About this listen
Holland Taylor is comfortable in interrogation rooms. For years the cold, dark cells of the St. Paul Police Department homicide squad were his turf, and with the help of his partner he wrung confessions out of countless killers. But that was long ago. Tonight Taylor is on the other side of the desk. Tonight he is the suspect.
Taylor's career in the department ended after his wife and daughter were killed in a drunk driving accident. The culprit, John Brown, was sentenced to a measly six years for vehicular manslaughter, and Taylor vowed bloody vengeance in front of open court. After a few months of freedom, Brown is shot dead, and Taylor, now a private investigator, is called in as the obvious suspect.
The death turns out to be linked to Taylor's current case, involving state representative and gubernatorial candidate Carol Catherine Monroe, who is being blackmailed by an old boyfriend. He didn't kill John Brown, but he will find out who did even if it means tearing the Twin Cities apart from the inside out.

Good olde gumshoe
A good private detective story in the Micky Spillane style. Brought to life by the narration of RC Bray. The story gets a little confusing as the number of characters increases meaning you might be rewinding at times to recall who is who.

Very dull
I gave up after an hour and a half. I just didn’t care about any of the characters or the plot. The narration was grating as well.

Flat and trivial female characters
Promising beginning, tho female characters totally flat and 50’ vibe like (the part when CC starts to cry during debate and the Holland’s lunch with that naive receptionist was painfully cringe, sorry..) and all that political soup of intrigues and background was very monotonous and way difficult to follow..
