In the fall of 1991, Zooey Orson transfers to the Blackfriars School for Boys hoping for a fresh start following a scandal at his last school. However, he quickly learns that he isnât the only student keeping a secret. Before he knows it, heâs fallen in with a group of boys who all share the same secret, one which they can only express openly within the safety of the clandestine gatherings of the Vicious Circleââthe covert club for gay students going back decades. But when the boys unwittingly happen upon the headmasterâs copy of an arcane occult text, they unleash an eldritch secret so terrible, it threatens to consume them all.
 Â
A queer paranormal story set during the still-raging AIDS crisis, Fraternity examines a time not so long ago when a secret brotherhood lurked in the shadows. What would Zooey and his friends do to protect their found family?
