Chapter 1 - After Death

Maali Almeida woke up dead, which was inconvenient for several reasons.

He was a photographer, a gambler, and secretly gay in 1990s Sri Lanka.

"You have seven moons to sort out your affairs," the afterlife bureaucrat told him.

Maali's biggest regret wasn't his death - it was leaving behind DD, the man he loved.
