“Unsettling and surprisingly poignant. It explores sexuality, jealousy, shame, and moral compromise in a way that feels raw and unfiltered…. Hunter’s voice is sharp, self-aware, and darkly humorous…. A provocative and emotionally layered exploration of a young man spiraling under the weight of his own secrets.”
—San Francisco Book Review

Hunter seems to have it all: brains, biceps, and a bright future beyond the halls of his oppressive high school. He also has a private obsession that he knows is wrong: secretly recording his older brother, Nash, with a spy cam. It starts as a thrill and morphs into a power trip. But one day, the video footage reveals something so disturbing that it cracks Hunter’s life straight down the middle.

Now he’s trapped in a nightmare where desire leaves fingerprints, loyalty pulls triggers, and the brother he thought he knew might be the most dangerous person in the room. To survive what he’s uncovered, Hunter turns to his best friend, Oscar, who may also be the man Hunter never knew he needed.

When the family you’re born into puts you at risk, the family you choose may be the only thing that keeps you alive.

Hunter’s Hidden Camera is an emotionally charged LGBTQ coming-of-age psychological thriller about hunger, shame, and the brutal cost of exposure.

Perfect for fans of:
– campus thrillers tangled with forbidden gay desire
– taboo obsession and morally messy characters
– slow-burn m/m tension mixed with psychological intensity
– literary queer fiction for adults
– vintage pulp paperbacks
– genre storytelling blended with personal experience
– stories about gay men told from a gay male perspective
