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.

Curated and edited by Jeff Circle, the creator of The Writer’s Dossier, a revered multimedia showcase featuring both established and emerging talent in the crime and thriller genres, this anthology brings together an impressive collection of stories from some of the best modern crime thriller writers working today. Each narrative unearths the hidden complexities that drive individuals to make troubling choices in the name of loyalty, revenge, or survival, exposing the intricate interplay between right and wrong.

As characters confront their own ethical boundaries, they reveal the nuances of human behavior and the often-blurred lines that define them. This anthology challenges readers to consider how desperation can shape decisions, leading to moments where the 'right' choice becomes obscured by the weight of circumstance.

In Myopic Duplicity, the characters’ journeys invite introspection, pushing readers to question their own values and the potential consequences of their actions. With each tale, the anthology crafts a vivid exploration of the human psyche, illustrating that sometimes the most compelling conflicts arise not from external forces, but from within.
