About
Jason Gilbert an author, film critic, and licensed electrician. Best known for his action-packed and often irreverent Coldstone Case Files series, Gilbert’s work has been published in multiple anthologies along with his own novels.
Born in Rock Hill SC, he published his first book Gaslit Insurrection in 2017, kicking off the Clockworks of War trilogy. Once completed, that led to a collection of short stories placed in the same universe (The Rifle Chronicles). In 2019 Wolfbane, the first novella in the Coldstone universe was released quickly followed by Wolfmoon, Wolfsong, and Wolfheart. Due to their popularity, they were re-released as One with the Wolf: The Coldstone Case Files Volume One in 2021. Book two in the series (A Dog with Two Tails) is slated to hit shelves in early 2023.
Jason streams on twitch as Failflix, with OhHaiMark and TheGreyCat every Sunday on Terrible Movies with Wonderful People. He hosts and runs the Time Travelling Authors booth at the NC Renaissance Festival each year. His influences include horror cinema, bloody video games, dark beer, and heavy metal music.
The Coldstone Case Files

James Coldstone is the perfect eligible bachelor: he’s rich, he’s handsome…and he can turn into a werewolf at will. What starts as an ordinary day turns into an investigation into the most horrific murders James’s hometown has seen since the infamous Wolf-Man Murders of years ago. But things are never uncomplicated, and the rabbit hole only goes deeper.
James is joined by his best friend, Phillip, as he chases a group of kidnappers down the east coast to rescue a little girl from a fate worse than anything he could’ve imagined. Before it’s all over, James Coldstone will discover that evil knows no boundaries, and that his damaged past pales in comparison to what the dark and infinite world of human trafficking has in store for both its victims and the people who are willing to look beyond the veil that conceals its inhuman truths.
