The Corner

She was walking to the station. A stranger decided she owed him an answer.

Cici Willow’s Saturday plans are simple: catch a train, visit her sister, and pick up lemon rolls along the way.

But near Bellwether Station, a man with an amplifier is turning racial resentment into a public spectacle. When Cici walks past without engaging, one of his followers takes her silence personally—and blocks her path.



Police intervention ends the confrontation, but its consequences travel beyond the corner. A witness has recorded the incident. A longtime supporter begins questioning the speaker’s message. And Cici must decide how to reclaim her ordinary life after becoming the target of someone else’s anger.

The Corner by Mia Bills is gripping contemporary fiction about racial hostility, intimidation, the influence of hateful rhetoric, and the courage to hold people accountable.

When a crowd encourages cruelty, who will refuse to go along?

She never joined the argument. She still became its target.
