In Proxy, Jane White delves into the tangled webs of passion, betrayal, and manipulation within a deeply dysfunctional household. Teenage Patch, on the cusp of adulthood, observes and navigates the chaotic world of adult desires as his parents, Victor and Judith, openly pursue their own affairs. Victor moves between his alluring wife and his willing mistress, while Judith seduces Fin, the naive young tutor, drawing him deeper into her calculating grip.
Meanwhile, Patch toys with the affections of Sarah, the emotionally vulnerable girl next door. Beneath the surface of this seemingly languid country home simmers a volatile brew of lust, jealousy, and dangerous secrets.
When tensions inevitably erupt, the only question is: who will escape unscathed — and who will be left to pick up the pieces?
