Los Angeles has a new and unlikely champion...the vampire detective Felix Gomez.
Felix went to the Iraq war a soldier; he came back a vampire. Now working as a private detective, Felix’s latest case in X-RATED BLOODSUCKERS brings him back home to the San Fernando Valley to investigate the murder of a promising young surgeon turned porn star. The clues lead him to a beautiful Chicana activist crusading against greedy developers. In this investigation, Felix meets his deadliest foes yet...fellow vampires and their human patrons. Felix gets help from an unexpected ally, an ancient and scruffy vampire living in Boyle Heights, the son of La Malinche and her Jewish Conquistador lover. This timely and pointed satire slices and dices the usual suspects: American pop culture; sexual myths; and corrupt government bureaucrats.
