Antoine's Double Trouble
Revised Edition – A Literary Tale of Identity, Obsession, and Survival

Antoine David Rucker lives two lives.

By day, he's a rising star at a prestigious insurance firm—sharp-suited, polished, and poised to become the company's youngest Black executive. But by night, he haunts the streets of Atlanta, chasing dangerous men and darker needs, trying to fill a void he can't quite name.

When his secret life is exposed, Antoine's carefully built world begins to unravel. Shame, obsession, betrayal, and past trauma crash into the present, threatening not just his career but his sanity.

Set in early 2010s Atlanta, Antoine's Double Trouble is a raw, intimate portrait of a man caught between who he's expected to be and who he truly is.

This revised edition offers the author's definitive vision—tighter, bolder, and more emotionally resonant than ever before.

Perfect for fans of James Baldwin, E. Lynn Harris, and contemporary queer fiction that digs deep.
