Maelstrom

Narrado por: Evan Deiro

A multimillion-dollar art heist. A murder suspect on borrowed time. The shocking conspiracy that ties them together.

Houston private investigator Malcolm Ly doesn’t need dangerous cases. He’s still regaining his footing after a recent job cost him his son’s life. The only reason he accepts his latest client, a man locked up for a double homicide who says he’s been framed, is the paycheck.

Tragedy or not, rent is due.

His client has narrowly survived one shanking while in custody so Mal suspects his claims ring true. Why is someone so desperate to silence the man instead of letting him take the fall?

Meanwhile, Selena Parish, an old flame and an insurance claims investigator with questionable methods, convinces Mal to help her on a huge art theft case involving a mayoral candidate. With leads in both investigations drying up, Mal turns to a loan shark, Moua, who has her thumb on the pulse of crime in the city.

If her lead is true, Mal and Selena’s cases are connected. But the only way to unravel this web of high-stakes deceit is to perform a favor for Moua.

And Mal knows what happens to prey who swim with sharks…
