Book Description
Brooke is a successful cop in New Jersey but when her Captain gets a call from up north, she has no choice but to help with an investigation in New York. The NYPD are suffering from a breach and some rampant gang related activity. Brooke's entire career as a cop is erased and she's sent up as a deep undercover agent. This trilogy contains Brooklyn Nights, Brooklyn Heights and Brooklyn Fights in one three book bundle! Brooklyn Nights Brooke is a beat cop in New Jersey. She's from a family of cops, starting with her grandfather and she's damn proud of it. When the New York Police Department suffers a horrible cybersecurity breach that reveals all their undercover agents, the Captain of Brooke's precinct asks her if she wants to help. She is a bit hesitant at first, having never gone undercover, but Captain Bolt reassures her that she has the skills to succeed. When she agrees, Captain Bolt informs her that they are running on very limited information. Per the NYPD the breach was from hackers, hired by a mysterious gang that has slowly engulfed Brooklyn. The NYPD don't even have a main suspect, or even a name on the gang. This is a trial by fire, as Brooke goes up to unfamiliar territory, with no resources and her history wiped from the New Jersey police systems. Only a select few will know of and assist with Brooke's undercover operation. Can Brooke handle the heat or will she be burned as she spends her Brooklyn nights undercover? Brooklyn Heights Brooke is deep undercover and she's been promoted to manage a more prestigious gang territory, Brooklyn Heights. She hasn't heard from her own squadron in a while, and she's got quite a lot to tell them. Her instincts tell her that something is wrong but she knows she has to ignore them if she wants to survive. Lamar and Marcus aren't like the usual run of the mill gangsters she's used to. As she becomes more engrossed in their lives, she begins to wonder if they're getting outside help. They've split their empire into multiple gangs, with no true center that she can pinpoint. In addition, they've built several businesses of their own to launder their money. Brooke can't help but think that there's another higher power at work with the isolation they've created. Unbeknownst to her, Captain Bolt and the team supporting her are also finding strange activity within the police ranks in Brooklyn. Does Brooke manage to use her newfound position at Brooklyn Heights to uncover more of Lamar and Marcus' thuggish empire, or is she headed for a trap created by the very police she works for? Brooklyn Fights Brooke's cover has been blown and all her investigative work has gone straight to hell. She has nowhere to go as her own undercover team has been arrested by a corrupt deputy colonel. With only a soon to be discovered safehouse left, Brooke has her back against the wall. Her only option left is to fight back with whatever she has left. She knows she won't be able to take on the gang she was investigating but she can bring down the cop that put her and her team in this position. But the only way to get to him is to first figure out what his connection is with the lawyer that blew her cover...
