Brad Madison Legal Thriller #5
Veil of Justice
When a defense attorney is torn between vengeance and justice, everything he holds dear is put on the line.
After a sexual assault case lands on his desk, Brad Madison tackles it with typical zeal.
His client Eddie Mawson is a nerdy, self-made rich kid. He has a high IQ when it comes to making video games, but when it comes to women his IQ pretty much matches his age.
Brad didn’t expect this case to get to him, but it does. He didn’t think Mawson’s guilt or innocence should matter to him, but it does.
As a father to a young daughter, how can he in good conscience defend a predator?
As Brad digs deeper to find the truth, a Pandora’s box is opened, putting the lives of people he loves in danger and his own life at risk.
Meanwhile, Brad’s nursing a visceral rage over what he believes was a deliberate attack on his ex-wife Claire, a woman he cared for more than he was willing to admit.
On two fronts, Brad finds himself not just fighting to get to the truth but to get past his own demons.
Tapping into his reserves of character and instinct, he reaches breaking point.
Can he survive to win justice for his client... and to put those demons to rest?

I have read every one of J.J. Miller’s books and they only get better! Since I have read them all and don’t have another to pick up and read it takes a long time to find another book that I like because everything I download and sample pales in comparison to his method and talent as an author. You will NOT want to put this one down and if you do you will be anxious to get back to it. And if it your first book to read of his, you will then read them all!

J.J. Miller -Veil of Justice - Brad Madison Book 5
Veil of Justice is the fifth book in the excellent Brad Madison series of legal thrillers. Author J.J. Miller has created an outstanding protagonist in Madison, who is nuanced, likeable, and not always predictable. The case Madison is working in this novel is a puzzle and comes with plenty of risk. Madison is challenged not only from a legal standpoint, but also morally. Author Miller provides us with plenty of twists and turns as the plot races along to a satisfying conclusion. Veil of Justice is another great read from J.J. Miller.

Veil of Justice by JJ Miller
Excellent legal thriller set in Los Angeles. The ending (the actual culprit) was quite unexpected and surprising. All three books that I have read from this author have been excellent.

Wow! Awesome book. Picked up where we left off but there’s still a little cliffhanger so hopefully more to come. Great mystery, I didn’t guess who did it. So good!

another great storyline in this series, highly recommend
This book left my mind boggled. I mean is this a cliff hanger? There’s so many unanswered questions for me. I did get the right culprit but my reasoning for guessing them was wrong. The twist threw me off. Brad is an extraordinary lawyer. He’s loyal and devoted to his clients. I like how the author emphasized Brad flaws, how he struggled with PTSD, and how he is trying to overcome it. The author brings out a lot of emotions in Brad. I like how the author humanizes Brad to the readers by expressing some of his weakness and by him experiencing some self-doubt, stress and pressure in his life. His anxieties are thru the roof sometimes, but then he is at his best, in his comfort zone, standing in the courtroom addressing the court. Brad is a great father to Bella, a great person, a great human being all around. Oh, and that relationship with Abby, throw that whole relationship away, please 🙏🏿.

Veil of Justice by J. J. Miller 2/22/2023 Kindle
This is another Attorney Brad Madison book which followed a few of the others in this series. I have to say, I enjoyed this fifth story more than the others. Madison is defending an unlikeable and unsophisticated character who is a recent multi-millionaire. His client is accused of sexual assault, claimed my very convincing victim. Never-the-less, Brad progresses with his defense with his usual zeal. The vulnerability of his own daughter is on his mind. While the story is short on some detail, it continued to hold my attention as a quick and simple read. As such, I have no problem recommending it to others.

I learnt something new on the potential use of virtual economies for money laundering do that itself pushes the book to a 5*. The story line however seemed to set up for a sequel which is fine

Loved this series!
I stumbled upon this series while waiting on a book to drop from another author. I was immediately entranced by the characters and devoured all five books in a row. Wish there were ten more!

Bring on book 6
I can't get enough of the Brad Madison series. Legal thrillers are one of my favorite genres, and J.J. Miller does an excellent job.

NEED BOOK 6
Highly addictive series with real life action and easy to follow plot and desire to non-stop finish series. Yes, I am addicted to the series and anxious to read book 6. I have no clue how J.J. Miller will be able to best book 5. J.J. Miller has the ability to keep your attention throughout the series. Most authors will start to struggle by book 4 NOT this author.
