Description: 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.


Hello.

Choke Hold: A Novel by Gerald Everett Jones could be taken straight out of the headlines. This book is about a man killed by the police and the attorney that fights for justice for him. It is refreshing to see characters grow and become more confident. I was uncomfortable at times because it does feel so much like some of the recent events. It is very well written. 

Thank you Netgalley and LaPuerta Books and Media for the digital ebook in exchange for a honest review. This novel is the first that I have read by the author. I am rating it Four Red Books because there were moments where it drug some. I am definitely considering reading more books by the author. I would recommend it.
