The Chicago Way cover

Repackaged to coincide with the paperback publication of The Third Rail

Chicago private investigator Michael Kelly is hired by his former partner, John Gibbons, to help solve an eight-year-old rape and battery case, a case it turns out his old friend was once ordered to forget. When Gibbons turns up dead on Navy Pier, Kelly enlists a team of his savviest colleagues to connect the dots between the recent murder.

When PI Michael Kelly is called upon by former colleague John Gibbons to help with an old case, he doesn't expect to find him dead the next morning. Coincidence? Kelly doesn't think so. Determined to catch his friend's killer, Kelly must piece together a link between Gibbons' death and the brutal rape that happened eight years earlier. He needs all the help he can get. Kelly's fearsome new team is bright, savvy and determined, but Chicago's mob, serial rapists and shady policing won't make it easy.


This fast-paced debut captures the dangerous, gritty world of Chicago crime through wit and suspense.
