Gil Miller had a normal upbringing in Northwest Arkansas, which means his parents aren't to blame for him going into crime (fiction). Instead, he blames a steady diet of movies, shows, and books, from Miami Vice and Scarface in the '80s to Breaking Bad and Justified in the '00s. To cap it all off, he discovered authors such as Michael Connelly, Robert Crais, Don Winslow, and the late, great Elmore Leonard. He and his wife make their home outside Fayetteville, where he is a long-standing member of the Northwest Arkansas Writers' Workshop and a founding partner of Oghma Creative Media. Animal Sacrifice is his fifth novel to date. His others include Spree, A Temporary Thing, Startup, and Franchise.
