Magic, Monsters and Murder! An urban fantasy legal thriller you can sink your teeth into.
If a miracle happens and I somehow manage to kill this vampire psychopath, my prize is the chance to save a girl, and become one of twenty-four Advocates who decide and enforce the laws that govern the millions of monsters that roam the earth eating babies for breakfast. I imagine they're not going to be too happy about having a human as a member of their club. Screw my life. How did I get myself into this? As a San Francisco Public Defender, Colt Valentine has just about seen and heard it all. That is until he has a meeting with a well-dressed man claiming to be a sixteen-hundred-year-old vampire who tells him that vampires, witches, and shifters are not only living among us, but have their own legal system. Colt, of course, thinks this guy is crazy until he's shown a video of a family being savagely murdered by a monster he never imagined existed ... not even in his darkest nightmares. Nothing is above the law ... not even monsters!

Just another routine day at the office, absolutely nothing out of the ordinary-other than the fact that the judge has a giant scorpion tail, the defense attorney's a vampire, and the defendant's a werespider who would very much like to rip my head off and drink me dry. Colt is a great trial lawyer, trained by the best, but even he begins to doubt himself as he is immersed in this dark world of magic, monsters, and murder. Colt tries to balance his old life with his new life, while struggling to obtain justice under a set of arcane laws that govern a society that views humans as nothing more than their next meal. The worst part of his new job is that, if he loses, he could lose more than just a trial, he could lose his life.
Reader's love Colt Valentine!Great book. Can't wait for the next one. Wonderful book. The narrative is engaging and moved the story ahead at a brisk pace. Look forward to reading the further adventurous of Colt Valentine. - Ginzain ★★★★★
Please hurry up and write more! I really loved the mix of humor/banter between characters, the lawyer's approach and court drama, the door hopping, the plethora of monsters and the fact that this could, and should, be the first of a long list of Advocate clients, either human or not! - M. Flinders ★★★★★
I love this book! I really enjoyed this story. Once I started reading, I could not stop. It is very well written and it is easy to read. Very enjoyable. I hope the author has more books very soon. I would recommend this to anyone! - Verified Amazon Customer ★★★★★
Love Colt Valentine! Colt Valentine is the next great urban fantasy anti-hero in the vein of Harry Dresden, Owen Zastava Pitt, Remy Chandler, Alex Verus, and Atticus O'Sullivan. I read a lot of fantasy and this one is definitely worth reading. - C. Sant ★★★★★
One of my top 10 favorite books! This was my first urban fantasy book in which the lawyer is the hero. And what a lawyer! Colt is one witty smartass. He has a remark to everything, a really snarky but funny one so I caught myself laughing out loud when he said something like that. There are other characters in the book as well like a goofy-but-in-a-funny-way investigator Wilson, a computer geek called Joycee and a, who knows how years old, vampire called Sinn. I love even her name because it suits her so much. I hope to get to know her more in future books. - A. Szabó ★★★★★
