IndieReader Discovery Award Winner. Kirkus Reviews hails it as "a tale that solidifies Turner as a charmingly reliable champion of the innocent." San Francisco Book Review calls it "a fantastic read that will keep you interested from cover to cover."
Written by a practicing criminal defense attorney with three decades of Oakland courtroom experience, Blood Perfect is legal fiction with the authenticity only a real trial lawyer can bring.

A young Joe Turner steps back into the fight to defend Allston Walker, charged with the brutal attempted murder of a racist caretaker in a case that is anything but straightforward. As Joe battles slippery police officers and a preening prosecutor, haunting images of the crime pull him back to a life-altering moment from his own childhood. And just when the trial seems lost, the twists aren't over.
Assisted by his investigator, an aging hippie who speaks exclusively in movie quotes, the snarky, quick-witted Turner hurtles headlong into a romance even as the verdict threatens to upend everything.

A courtroom thriller that blends legal authenticity, dark humor, and gut-punch plot twists into one compulsively readable package.
Perfect for fans of John Grisham, Scott Turow, and S.A. Cosby.

Fans of Grisham's moral complexity and S.A. Cosby's electric pacing will find themselves burning through pages long past midnight.
