God did not stop creating after the seventh day.

Deep beneath a Balkan mountain, an ancient tribunal confronts an even more ancient evil. Alarmed about the future, the magistrate sends his enforcer, Svan Coltello, on a new hunt — but this time not for prey.

Meanwhile, in her Los Angeles County courtroom, Judge Julia Townsend confronts the worst of humanity. Having worked tirelessly to achieve this dream job, she clings to her reputation for no-nonsense decorum, a firm sense of justice, and ethical integrity. Balancing her work, her troubled daughter, and a fresh crisis of her own leaves her no time for playing games. Yet, reluctantly, she agrees to discuss her judicial philosophy with a disturbingly alluring "news reporter" named Svan Coltello.

Judge Townsend never imagined how quickly her life could become entwined with the primeval system of justice that Coltello really represents. Lured by Svan’s eloquence and charisma, she finds herself confronting a life-or-death dilemma.

Should she leave her old life behind for a new courtroom, where justice is swift, blood cannot lie, and guilt is determined beyond all shadow of a doubt? Not while her daughter’s safety still hangs in the balance...

The story shows how parallel systems of justice, in both the "mortal" and the "undead" worlds, can cooperate. With its themes of both romance and professional collaboration between human and vampire, Midnight Justice brings an intriguing new perspective to the vampire novel.
