yellow wedge??
“No, sir,” the Turk mumbled. “No. But don’t use force. Please. Force is mine. Strike me if you feel the need. I won’t care.”
The Sicilian returned to the other side of the boat. “She would have screamed,” he said. “She was about to cry out. My plan was ideal as all my plans are ideal. It was the moon’s ill tim-ing that robbed me of perfection.” He scowled unforgivingly at the yellow wedge above them. Then he stared ahead. “There!” The Sicilian pointed. “The Cliffs of Insanity.”
I would like to know what does "the yellow wedge above them" mean. Does "yellow wedge" mean "moon"? but is moon in the shape of wedge? Thanks.

Yes, it's the Moon. A wedge is a shape like a piece of pie or cake with one thick end and one thin end. Sometimes the Moon looks like that, depending on the time of month or the clouds etc.
