*completed* An old friend. A new invitation. And a life Jay couldn't even imagine-until he sees what's really going on behind the glass towers of Chicago's elite.
Detective Jay Halstead hasn't heard from Maurice Campbell in years-not since they took two different paths out of the same South Side streets. But when Maurice resurfaces, successful, charming, and living high above the city in a penthouse built on secrets, it seems as if nothing had changed between them.
Jay becomes part of partys, drinks and poker and gets a glimpse into a life that looked nothing like the streets they came from. But beneath the surface, something's off. The kind of off that sits too quiet. That watches too closely. That hides behind designer suits and perfect smiles.
The bruises no one talks about. The tension no one dares to name. The laughter that sounds a little too loud, a little too wrong. The carefully measured calm in his voice. The shadows that pass too quickly across her face-until they don't.
It's not a love story.
It's a story about silence.
And what happens when it finally breaks.

It will compromise her job which she works so hard for everyday.Nearly losing the love of her life almost pushed Spencer over the edge. Can she come back from it? CPD Intelligence. The most elite unit in CPD. The unit everyone wants to be in. Intelligence is the place people work their whole lives to get to. Everybody wants the job, but nobody knows the truth. They don't know how the job manages to weave its way into your heart and tear down your life from the inside out until it's too late to stop it. Everybody wants the job, but without the pain. When Spencer agreed to transfer to intelligence, she wasn't signing up for all the blood, sweat, tears and pain it came with. But hey, it's a package deal. Nobody is every truly a clean cop, are they? If you work under Hank Voight, you're somewhat dirty. Working in intelligence means that sometimes you have to get your hands a little bloody. A little dirty. It means that sometimes you have to cross lines. Sometimes you have to put aside your morals. Sometimes you have to flip that switch that controls your humanity and turn it off. If you don't do that, the job will eat you up and ruin you. But maybe that's why that select group of people live for that job so much. They're the ones that learned to love the pain. They're the warriors who make chicago what it is. They're the ones who built that city. They were born for it. [DISCLAIMER] I did not invent one Chicago, nor do I claim to have.
