Choke Hold

From the acclaimed author of 2020 Independent Press Awards Distinguished Favorites  Clifford's Spiral  and  Preacher Finds a Corpse. Hank Ellis was murdered in his own home for dissing the cops. Cynical personal-injury attorney Eli Wolff rediscovers his idealism for simple justice when he sues the city for the wrongful death of an unarmed African-American man at the hands of two police officers. Ellis was killed in his own home, choked to death, after angry officers stormed in without a warrant, anxious to teach him a lesson for disrespecting them in front of his neighbors.
