Full Moon: An Afroqueer Gothic Novel

By DiAndre X

Coral moves to Crescent Cove from the San Francisco Bay area, seeking solace from a toxic work environment and the heartache of a devastating breakup. His manager had pushed him to a nervous breakdown, while his partner, Luka, left to "find himself," shattering Coral's dreams of a future together. He envisions the small town's stunning beaches and mystical redwoods as a sanctuary for healing and renewal. Accepting a temporary position as a nurse practitioner at Crescent Cove State Prison, Coral hopes to reignite his passion for medicine by serving an underprivileged community. However, his aspirations for tranquility quickly spiral into a harrowing nightmare.

What he encounters in Crescent Cove is far more sinister than he ever anticipated. Instead of conservative values, he stumbles upon a twisted underbelly of horror and hypocrisy. A clandestine sex cult among prison officers and staff engages in debauched rituals every full moon, luring out the most alluring inmates-muscular, tattooed men who become unwilling participants in their sordid escapades. As Coral uncovers the depths of this depravity, he discovers that during these lunar nights, medical staff conduct inhumane psychological experiments on prisoners, torturing them by isolating them from loved ones and testing their breaking points.
