Windy City
Description
The cool autumn wind from the lake channeled back along the streets and the alleys as it made its way farther into the city. The grey unseen clouds in night sky held the warmth of the city close to the surface.
The keg had run dry so Jack volunteered to go out and get a couple of cases so that the party could continue. The light ahead was turning yellow, so he slowed to a stop.
It would be his last stop.
The throw away gun was put into his cold black hands. Cocaine was planted in the car and a packet put in his pocket. The call to the dispatcher declared the chase and stop of a drug dealer. There would be no witnesses, no one to challenge the fact that they had shot the driver as he stopped at a red light.
The two looked at each other and grinned. The older one said, "one less."
Alex was surprised when she was asked if she would accept an assignment to the Chicago police department. She learned that she was being asked to investigate internal corruption of the department. She said she would have to think about it.
Her decision to accept was immediate when she received a threatening phone call from a person claiming to represent the Chicago mafia.
She insisted that she be sworn in as an Illinois employee. She arrives in Chicago and two gunmen try to kill her as she arrives to the main police station.
She immediately confronts the Chief of Police. She then gives an ultimatum to the person that has set her up.
She is kidnapped and taken to meet with the Chicago Mafia kingpin where she and her family are threatened.
She responds to the threat on her family by promising the same for the Mafia's boss family.
She immediately realizes that the threat that was made on her was already in the process of being executed.
She takes immediate counter measure actions.
Her quick action and the immediate response of her team nullifies the mafia's attempt.
The action against the mafia boss is taken not by Alex but by the Gulf Cartel who warned the Mafia to keep away from Alex.
Having a drug cartel shielding a law enforcement individual is a surprise to all involved.
This a must read tale. .
