About The Author
Ruben Miller
Ruben Miller is a forensic scientist who spent 22 years working on crime scenes across Aotearoa New Zealand. He specialised in reconstructing crimes and collaborated closely with police on high-profile and challenging investigations. From Cape Reinga to the Kaimanawas, he has been invited into New Zealand homes for all the wrong reasons. In 2023, he left his job after accepting that it had taken a considerable toll, an experience that prompted him to reflect more deeply on the human cost of frontline forensic work. He lives in Auckland where he writes, gives talks, reviews criminal cases for New Zealand courts and tries to stay curious.
