Justin B. Dunn Sr. is an independent author and founder of New Direction Press, based in Dayton, Ohio. Known for his raw, confrontational storytelling and emotionally grounded narratives, Dunn writes across psychological thrillers, street crime fiction, and personal development, delivering work that challenges readers to confront uncomfortable truths about loyalty, identity, and consequence. His writing is defined by high-intensity pacing, authentic dialogue, and layered character dynamics that reflect real-world pressure and decision-making. Through multiple series, including Built on Lies, Buried in Truth, Dunn explores how one choice can trigger irreversible outcomes, and how silence, once chosen, eventually demands a price.
