Midnight in the Garden
Every heart has its thorns.
In this haunting and evocative collection, the writers of the Novelitics Writers Collective lead readers through tangled vines and shadowed corners of the human soul. Midnight in the Garden offers a fresh, unexpected exploration of the seven deadly sins—lust, gluttony, greed, sloth, wrath, envy, and pride—through stories that are by turns chilling, poignant, darkly humorous, and unforgettable.
From quiet betrayals and whispered confessions to explosive confrontations and eerie reckonings, each tale sinks deep beneath the surface of sin to uncover the longings, fears, and fragile hopes that shape our lives. This is not a morality tale—it’s a mirror held up to the heart.
Dare to step into the garden. You may not emerge the same.
