Join us for a magical, emotional, and deeply queer summer read that blends romance, fantasy, and found family in one unforgettable story.Set in 1989, this novel follows Joe Agabian as he spends a summer on Fire Island Pines, hoping to move forward after losing his boyfriend to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. What begins as a season of healing and self-discovery quickly turns mysterious when Joe and his best friend Ronnie meet two eccentric older men who are hiding a powerful secret. As members of a covert disco witch coven, they are working to protect their community from a growing darkness—one that threatens Joe himself. With romance, magic, and danger intertwined, this story captures both the joy and heartbreak of queer life during a pivotal moment in history.“A vibrant, heartfelt blend of magic and history that celebrates queer resilience, love, and community in the face of unimaginable loss.”
