Life was his sentence. Life is what he got back. The unconventional police officer-turned-convict-turned-detective gets a second chance. After twelve years in prison for a murder he didn't commit, offbeat Charlie Crews has returned to the force with a $50 million settlement, a new spiritual outlook, a strong fondness for fruit, and a highly unusual approach to solving crime. With the aid of his skeptical and demanding new partner, Dani Reese, he's turning police procedure upside down.
