NBC and “CSI” executive producer Carol Mendelsohn are going into business with each other for the drama pilot “Game of Silence.”

The pilot, which Mendelsohn (pictured) is executive producing, is about a rising attorney on the brink of success who risks losing his perfectly crafted life when his long lost childhood friends threaten to expose a dark secret from their violent past.

David Hudgins (“Parenthood,” “Friday Night Lights”) is writing the pilot, and will also executive produce along with Mendelsohn and Julie Weitz.

Sony and Carol Mendelsohn Productions are producing the pilot.

Earlier this week, NBC picked up the comedy pilots “People Are Talking” from DJ Nash and Will Packer and “Take it From Us,” from Greg Malins, Barry Schwartz and Jonathan Berry.
