Praise
An unsettling and addictive exploration of what it means to truly be seen. Keehnen’s prose is sharp, and his characters are complex, flawed, and deeply human. Watch Me grabs you by the throat and doesn’t let go until the final, haunting page.
“In Watch Me, Owen Keehnen pivots from historian to novelist with stunning, noirish precision. This is a lean, mean, and intensely cinematic look at the intersection of loneliness and obsession. A must-read for fans of psychological thrillers with a queer edge.”
