With Chicago's streets a safer after the vanquishing of the serial killer that ravaged the city in the last series, show stalwart Voight (Jason Beghe) must now face his own demons. It's not helped by the fact that trusted colleague Hailey Upton was last seen making her exit for O'Hare Airport. Luckily, a familiar face is ready to help him get back on the horse.

Freshening things up at the station for Chicago PD season 12 are two new faces – Officer Kiana Cook (Toya Turner) and Chief Charlie Reid (Shawn Hatosy). The former is a headstrong rookie looking to make her mark, while Reid is an experienced and calming influence. Just what Voight needs.
