Outliers Get to Know host Tracey Devlyn chats with thriller author and editor Jeff Circle about MYOPIC DUPLICITY—a chilling, thought-provoking crime anthology
where ethical boundaries blur and desperation rewrites the rules.
Do the ends ever justify the means?
Delve into a labyrinth of moral ambiguity and psychological tension where the pursuit of power and justice collides with the darker impulses of betrayal and manipulation. Each story digs deep into loyalty, revenge, survival, and the murky terrain in between—where ‘right’ is a shifting line, and every choice has a price.
Curated and edited by Jeff Circle, the creator of The Writer’s Dossier, MYOPIC DUPLICITY features gripping tales from standout voices—Eric Beetner • C.B. Bernard •
C.W. Blackwell • Wes Browne • Mindy Carlson • Ash Clifton • Libby Cudmore • Victor DeAnda • Erin Flanagan • Rob Hart • Terrence McCauley • Matt Phillips • M.E.
Proctor • C. Matthew Smith • Christopher Swann • Tony Wirt.
