About Wishes and Loopholes: Djinn Law, Book 1 (Unabridged)

If a Djinn granted you three wishes, what would you ask for? Riches? Immortality? World peace? More wishes? Really? Wrong. You’d overthink it, try to be clever – and end up legally bound to turn into a goat. Djinn are ancient, cunning, and terrifyingly literal. That’s why we invented Djinn Law: an entire legal field built to navigate wish contracts and keep the world (mostly) intact. Enter Elias Trenholm, a junior solicitor stuck at the bottom of the hierarchy at Albright & Rune, a firm specialising in Djinn contract law. When a rare high-profile case finally lands in his lap, one honest mistake activates an ancient clause – and silences the world’s legal system. All lawyers lose their ability to practise. Except Elias. Now the only lawyer left, Elias must navigate ancient contracts, cursed pursuers, and family fallout with only a sharp colleague, a morally ambiguous Djinn guide, and his own unravelling past to help him. Clearing his name – and fixing the world – might mean facing the possibility that none of this was ever an accident. Wishes and Loopholes is a genre-blending debut, perfect for fans of Ben Aaronovich's Rivers of London, P. Djèlí Clark's A Master of Djinn and Richard Swan's The Justice of Kings. Fast paced, original and funny where counts and serious where matters. A contemporary fantasy packed with high-stakes trials, clever contracts, and the dangerous beauty of Djinn lore.
