The Midnight Witness
Justice runs in the blood—but so does betrayal.
A young man is accused of murder. But when defense attorney Hank Luger takes the case, he finds himself pulled into Savannah’s underworld—where tech dreams mask criminal empires, and the city’s wealthy are scrambling to buy into the hottest, and crookedest, “can’t-miss” investment opportunity. As Hank follows the trail, he uncovers a ruthless game of ambition, betrayal, and buried family secrets.
The Midnight Witness delivers the sharp storytelling, moral complexity, and gripping suspense readers have come to expect from J.J. Miller.

After failing at my first attempt, I figured the answer was no. Maybe I just wasn’t cut out to write fiction. As a young teen, I’d devoured every new Wilbur Smith book I could get my hands on. Then Hemingway got ahold of me. Hunter S. Thompson exhilarated me. Nabokov dazzled me. Raymond Carver floored me. Tom Clancy captivated me. And John Grisham filled me with awe.
After writing three non-fiction books, I decided to turn once more to my first literary love: fiction. I wanted to find out, once and for all, if I could produce the kind of gripping novel I loved to read. Between a full-time job and being a hands-on dad, I used every stolen moment I could find to write my first novel. It took me a year and a lot of hard work but it proved worth it: my debut novel Force of Justice became a bestseller, hitting #1 on Amazon’s Pulp Thrillers chart.
