THE GRINDING MILL a gripping legal thriller

A SHOCKING LEGAL THRILLER THAT WILL HAVE YOU ON THE EDGE OF YOUR SEAT.

The mills of the law grind slowly, yet they grind exceedingly fine.

Two police officers shoot dead an innocent Black man on his porch. They are now facing a murder charge.

Nick Bennett, a 51-year-old veteran lawyer, has been off the court circuit for years. He takes on the defense case — but at what cost?

Old-time reporter Hamilton Durst is looking for a break. When he stumbles across the explosive truth behind the shooting, he knows it is going to save his career.

But this story won’t just put one death in the spotlight.

Simmering racial tensions explode into wider, violent protests. All sides know there can be no justice . . . whatever the verdict.

The Grinding Mill is an exhilarating thriller that explores the depths of racial prejudice and law bias in 1970s America. It is as relevant today as it was when it was written.

Perfect for fans of John Grisham, Michael Connelly, Scott Turrow, Philip Margolin and Jeffery Deaver.
