Synopsis
0
Life is the story of Detective Charlie Crews, who has recently been released from prison after DNA evidence exonerated him for a front-page triple murder for which he served twelve years. Having lost his job, his wife, nearly all contact with the outside world and even his grip on reality for a time while in jail, he has emerged with head full of Zen (having found a copy of The Way Of Zen in the prison yard one day, he read it endlessly), a fruit fixation, and an obsession with solving the murder that nearly cost him his life. After successfully suing Los Angeles and the LAPD, he has been reinstated to the police force, and received an undisclosed but substantial settlement.
While in jail, technology, culture, and life passed him by, as evidenced by his unfamiliarity with the now-everyday things like tiny cell phones, instant messaging, etc.
He's been partnered with Dani Reese who is not in the best of graces with her superiors either, having temporarily lost her way as an undercover narcotics agent. Their Lieutenant is looking for a reason to get rid of Crews, and as she has a reason to get rid of Reese, is subtly blackmailing her with expulsion to find such a reason. Crews, meanwhile, is trying to readjust to life outside prison, but is also pretty focused on solving the murder that he was imprisoned for - or more precisely, finding out who framed him for it.
