About this listen

 Mathew Nelson is struggling mightily after his father is gunned down in a brutal Mexican cartel gunfight and their company craters. Desperate for work, Matt is hired to supervise apartment construction for a city-county housing partnership headed by Dwight Lamar, a master manipulator who scams millions into his pocket and vanishes without a trace. No one is ever brought to justice. There is public outrage as elections approach. Local politicians demand the conniving DA find a scapegoat. Matt Nelson fits the bill. In short order Matt is indicted on several trumped-up charges.

Stuck with land in Texas when Lamar disappears, an Albanian family from New York resells it to a bottom feeder investor from Utah, who immediately defaults on the deal. The incensed family patriarch hires Matt and brother John to chase down the swindlers. Their wild pursuit takes them from singles bars in Brooklyn to the ski slopes of Vermont to mountains of Utah. Their success will be rewarded by a special favor only the patriarch can grant.

Things look grim for Matt whose trial is imminent. Though innocent, he deliberates coping a plea with the DA for limited prison time or facing the whim of a fickle jury. He cannot imagine subjecting Ellen and their children to a highly visible public trial. Can anything save him at the eleventh hour?
