Maggie is a young woman trapped by the expectations of a conservative family and a life she doesn't feel is her own. Everything changes when she meets an enigmatic man whose origins are the Cold War's best-kept secret. What begins as an intense and unsettling romance quickly turns into a nightmare of government conspiracies and twisted bioethics. After decades of silence, the truth comes to light: a Soviet experiment on the Moon-the "Selene Syndrome"-has left behind a lineage of beings with superior intellectual abilities but lethal biological instincts. Maggie will be forced to choose between loyalty to her own species and her unbreakable bond with a creature that society considers a monster. Selenite is a dark science fiction thriller that explores the limits of human instinct, the cruelty of scientific power, and a woman's ability to find her freedom in the most unexpected corner of the universe. A raw story where love and horror share the same DNA.
