Grinder
Published by ECW Press
A mob enforcer is pulled back into his old life in this “terrific read” (Ken Bruen, Shamus Award–winning author of The Dramatist).
Two years ago, Wilson made a deal: he let his old boss live in exchange for a clean slate. He’s kept up his end of the bargain since then, and stayed off the grid—working on a fishing boat off of Prince Edward Island, Canada.
Now, many miles from the city he once escaped, a man comes calling on Wilson with a gun in his hand and a woman in his trunk. And Wilson is pulled back into his old life as a “grinder”—working under the radar to quietly find out who is responsible for a dangerous mobster’s missing nephews . . .
“Razor-edged prose and a sympathetic antihero lift Knowles’s no-holds-barred crime thriller . . . Readers who like their mean streets really mean will be thoroughly satisfied.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
