Synopsis

Ask anyone on the wrong side of the law about the two minute rule and they’ll tell you that’s as long as you can hope for at a robbery before the cops show up. Break the two minute rule and it’s a lifetime in jail. But not everyone plays by the rules....When ex-con Max Holman finally gets out of jail, freedom doesn’t taste too sweet. The only thing on his mind is reconciliation with his estranged son, who is, ironically, a cop. But then he hears the devastating news: His son and three other Los Angeles police officers were gunned down in cold blood the night before Holman’s release. When the hit is exposed as a revenge killing and the question of police corruption is raised, it becomes a father’s last duty to clear his son’s name and catch the killer. With all the elements that have made Robert Crais one of the very best crime novelists today, The Two Minute Rule is gripping, edgy suspense from the author who sets the standard when it comes to surprising plot twists and powerful characters.

Ten years in federal prison have reformed Max and he’s worked through the rele......more

Goodreads review by LenaRibka on July 28, 2019

A good bad guy with a noble nature is my weak spot and the main character, ex-con Max Holman, meets all my expectations. A nicely twisted plot that brings a lot of unexpected turns - don't be sure to guess the bad guy at the first half of the book, mostlikely you will be wrong😛😎. A well done audio b......more
