The Grinding Mill — William J. Coughlin
A shadow moving across a street at night. Is he coming this way? What's he pulling out of his pocket?
When two security guards are assigned to patrol a district in a Midwestern town, they don't think of the danger it might bring them. They think only of the constant excitement and fulfilment of chasing down criminals.
But after a fatal accident on the job, the two guards realise they've made a mistake that will not only cost them their jobs and reputations, but also one that will cost the city its peace.
As their war wages within the courtroom, another erupts on the streets.
The Grinding Mill is an exhilarating, timely thriller that explores the depths of racial prejudice and law bias in contemporary America.
“Bravo! Coughlin brilliantly captures the corruption of the legal system by human error and greed. Thought-provoking and timely.” " Library Journal
