Writer of prestige drama, thrillers, and emotionally charged stories about buried truths, identity, and the cost of silence.
I don’t write “gay stories.”
I write thrillers where power seduces, love destroys, and fate never blinks.
Some of my leads are queer. The stakes get higher.
I’m not chasing trends. I’m defining them.
Fernando doesn’t enter the room. He takes control of it.

The Story
In modern-day Los Angeles, a rising actor becomes entangled in a deadly web of family secrets when a series of murders rocks the Hollywood elite, forcing him to uncover the truth about his own identity before he becomes the next victim in his manipulative brother's masterpiece of destruction.
The plot is intricately woven with multiple layers of deception and revelation. The noir style is effectively maintained throughout, with well-timed reveals and mounting tension. The structure of counting down hours adds urgency, and the various deaths are strategically placed for maximum impact.
​
The story successfully builds emotional investment through Alex's journey and the complex web of relationships. The betrayals and revelations hit hard, and the final act delivers satisfying emotional payoff.

He doesn’t wipe it off. He wears it.
He clasps a double-cross necklace around his neck. A quiet ritual.
Armor on. Game face loaded. Eyes — black, unreadable.
