MILLER THE EXPANSE BOOKS SERIES
Despite the lack of rainy or sunny days in Ceres' subterranean colony, Miller wears a hat in defiance of the anti-Earth sentiments expressed by many of his fellow Belters.Īt the start of the series he has never left Ceres. He stopped trying to stem the tide of man’s depravity years ago, and is resigned to surviving as best he can. Miller has witnessed a lifetime of the horrible things people will do to each other out of greed, anger, lust, and desperation. His role as a cop serving an Earth-based corporation often put him at odds with the Belter inhabitants who consider him a traitor to his people. His friend and partner Sematimba got 'kicked off the force' and gave Miller his signature hat to remind him "not to lose your head like I did." Choosing to work for Star Helix meant working for Earth – the oppressors of Belters like himself – but at least it put him on the winning side. Miller now works as a detective with Star Helix Security, an Earth corp with the security contract for Ceres. As they became adults, Semi planted this question in him, "Do you want to be the ass or the boot?" They both became cops.

But something happens to him during the search for Julie Mao he responds to the personality he is learning about. He is quite a cynical guy with a dark sense of humor. He was perceived by his leadership and peers as unmotivated and was routinely assigned the least urgent duties as well as any assignments for which lack of results was preferred. He took pay-offs when he could and made arrests when he had to. He knew the system was rigged, and always had been. Hard-working, grizzled, and a bit of an alcoholic, he was dedicated to getting by.
