Pay Me In Flesh — James Scott Bell

Hungry for justice . . . and brains! Meet Mallory Caine. Attorney at law. Zombie at large. She's not like those Living Dead losers you see in the movies. She doesn't slobber, drool, or lurch. She's smart, stylish, and sexy. Sure, she's a zombie and a lawyer but, hey, a girl's got to eat. When Mallory's not in the courtroom, going head to head with her ex-boyfriend, prosecutor Aaron Argula, she's in the seedy streets of Hollywood, hunting brain after brain. That is, until some psycho starts hunting zombie after zombie...The undead are decapitated, a letter Z carved in their flesh. Mallory doesn't want to lose her head, but she's worried. Like many lawyers in L.A., she doesn't have a soul, a side effect of being a zombie, not a defense attorney. If Mallory dies before she gets her soul back, she goes straight to hell. No appeals. Objection overruled. If the killer isn't stopped, it's case closed for zombies everywhere. But Mallory is an undying champion of justice, and she won't go down without a bite...The book that invented the zombie legal thriller is back. Originally published under the pen name K. Bennett, the Mallory Caine, Zombie-at-Law books are the work of James Scott Bell, winner of the International Thriller Writers Award and a former trial lawyer living (really and truly) in Los Angeles.
