Description
Charles Seares has perfected the art of invisible exploitation. A former academic turned street philosopher, he spends his days documenting the lives of society's forgotten-homeless youth, sex workers, struggling artists-while posing as a successful mystery novelist. What his subjects don't know is that their trust, their stories, and their most vulnerable moments are being carefully harvested for his literary success.
When Charles's psychiatrist friend challenges him to confront his demons in reality, rather than on the page, a night of cathartic destruction sets in motion a reckoning that will expose not only his elaborate deceptions, but the institutional abuse that shaped him, and the web of damaged relationships he's woven around his need to transform pain into profit. A haunting exploration of trauma, manipulation, and the dangerous line between authentic art and predatory observation, The Propinquity Effect asks whether redemption is possible for someone who has built their entire identity on the systematic betrayal of human trust.
