The Joe Pitt Casebooks are a series of supernatural noir thrillers written by American author Charlie Huston.

There are five books in the Joe Pitt Casebooks series: The stories take place in modern-day New York City, primarily on Manhattan Island (and sometimes in Brooklyn, the Bronx, or Queens).

In the Joe Pitt Series, local vampyres have loosely organized themselves into clans, each with their own territory on Manhattan Island.

The Enclave is often portrayed as a group of mad zealots, but their leader, Daniel considers Pitt to be a member of clan.

The Society is a prominent clan in lower Manhattan, and Joe Pitt lives on their turf as a Rogue (non-Clan member).

It is run by Terry Bird and is made up of a ragtag mixture of Anarchists, Gay rights activists, and other small groups.

The highest power level is made up of Bird, Lydia (gay rights), Tom (Anarchists), and Hurley, who is the main bodyguard to the three.

Their mission is to bring together all the clans into a single group and go public with information of The Vyrus so that they may live like normal people, and a cure may one day be found.

However, by the end of the first book, Pitt has pretty much pissed the Coalition off, causing him to no longer receive much needed jobs to keep his stash of blood up.

By the end of the second book, No Dominion, Pitt has joined Terry Bird's group, The Society, giving him immunity from the Coalition due to treaties and the need to avoid a war.

However, in the third book, Half the Blood of Brooklyn, Pitt is sentenced to death by Bird's group, and is rescued by a former Society member.

Dexter Predo: A very powerful vampyre in charge of running the security apparatus of The Coalition, the most prestigious clan in New York.

Hurley: Terry's extremely burly Irish bodyguard Lydia Miles: The head of the LGBT faction of the Society.

Skag Baron Menace: Leader of the Mungiki clan in Queens, a group of vampyres who sharpen their teeth and wear claws.
