“[Acevedo] manages to update vampire lore in clever and imaginative ways.”
—El Paso Times

If you haven’t yet encountered Gulf War veteran-turned-vampire private eye Felix Gomez, then now is the time! Jailbait Zombie—the fourth in author Mario Acevedo’s outrageously original dark fantasy p.i. series—pits the undead against the living dead, as vampires meet zombies for a no-holds-barred beatdown. As dark, sexy, funny, and endearingly strange as Acevedo’s previous vampiric excursions—Nymphos of Rocky Flats, X-Rated Bloodsuckers, and Undead Kama Sutra—Jailhouse Zombie is more of the top-shelf bloody madness that inspired Tim “Nuclear Jellyfish” Dorsey to comment that Mario Acevedo “is a very disturbed man—and I mean that in the absolute finest sense of the term.”

Review:

"The Nymphos of Rocky Flats is a sassy, fast, fun read, and the mystery wraps up nicely." -- Boulder Daily Camera

"Acevedo has proven once again that he is a very disturbed man--and I mean that in the absolute finest sense of the term."--Tim Dorsey

"The Nymphos of Rocky Flats is a witty, fast-paced, detective tale that also manages to update vampire lore in clever and imaginative ways."--El Paso Times

"Witty, fast-paced . . . manages to update vampire lore in clever and imaginative ways."--El Paso Times

"Deliciously unique. A smooth combination of Anne Rice and Michael Connelly, with a generous portion of Dave Barry. Loaded with thrills, sex, violence, and laughs, both mystery fanactics and horror lovers will find plenty to love with this page-turning debut. Acevedo is a writer to watch!"--JA Konrath, author of Bloody Mary

"The hero of this whodunit is an Iraqi Freedom soldier turned vampire turned gumshoe. The plot tests credulity here and there, but the snappy dialogue (pun intended), the pace and the porn stars (supernatural and otherwise) who populate the book more than compensate."--Playboy

Fans of splattery Hollywood-style horror will have fun with this tale of violence and mayhem.--Publishers Weekly

""The Nymphos of Rocky Flats" is a sassy, fast, fun read, and the mystery wraps up nicely."--Boulder Daily Camera

Acevedo has proven once again that he is a very disturbed man and I mean that in the absolute finest sense of the term. --Tim Dorsey"

Acevedo s vampire comedy provides plenty of chuckles, particularly in its exciting final wrap-up, which leaves an opening for further Felix adventures. --Booklist (starred review)"

From the Back Cover:

There's undead and then there's . . . living dead!

Private Investigator Felix Gomez thought he had seen it all since becoming a vampire: horny aliens, maniacal nymphos. But now he's facing everyone's worst nightmare.

As far as being undead goes, vampires are indisputably the more civilized—intelligent, rational (on occasion), good conversationalists. Zombies, on the other hand, are just violent, walking, rotting, flesh-eating meat with no redeeming qualities. And now there's a ravenous army of them heading this way.

So it's vamps versus zombies, round one. And Felix's only hope of stopping the stinking, hungry horde is a pre-cocious and much-too-hot-for-her-britches teenager with clairvoyant powers. But she's not going to help unless Felix agrees to make her immortal.
