Postmodernvenus: A Detective Novel Set in San Francisco

By W.G. Peterson

Based on a true story. POSTMODERNVENUS is the first novel in a trilogy. A work of San Francisco noir that immerses readers in the labyrinth of the city's broken justice system. To navigate it, Rose Visjon r turns to government codes, case law, and philosophy, calculating each move like a queen on a chessboard. With unwavering precision, she decodes stratagems veiled as order and outmaneuvers those who mistake her for a pawn.

"Halls of Justice painted green-money talking." --Metallica, San Francisco's own immortal metal vanguard

In this city, wealth reigns, and truth is buried six feet deep. What begins as a fact-finding mission pulls her deeper into the machinery of power, a labyrinthine chess match. For Rose, justice lies not only in victory but in confronting the system that controls the narrative-its own fiction d' tat. Government immunity does not apply when the law imposes a non-discretionary duty under California Government Code 815.6. A story of virtue. Of power. And ultio tenetur a veritate-justice bound by truth.
