Suicide and Sarcasm

By Mae Greene

Nick Hartley's life is a series of mediocre days after another until a chance encounter places him at the center of a high-profile murder investigation.

Broke, addicted to nicotine, and unhappily employed at a dive bar, Nick's shift is unremarkable and boring. That is until he takes a smoke break in the alley.

When a nervous stranger promises him a payout of $10,000 if he delivers a briefcase, things only become more strange for Nick. As desperation kicks in, he attempts to complete the delivery but discovers something shocking: the recipient is hanging dead in his drug-infested apartment.

Things go from bad to worse as Nick becomes the prime suspect in the suspicious death and the victim is revealed to be none other than the son of Chicago's wealthiest business tycoon.

Determined to prove his innocence, he teams up with reporter Lark Jennings who is looking for the story of a lifetime. As they dive headfirst into the case, they quickly learn that the stakes are much higher than either of them could have imagined.

The worlds of Chicago's underground gangs and its high-powered elites come crashing together as the duo unravels the mystery consuming their lives. Will they discover the truth, or will they become the next casualties?
