Propinquity John Maycumber

He flies..... With wings developed through a bizarre experiment in cloning. Harper Mockingbird, has escaped the lab that produced him. The black-clad young man now lives alone in an abandoned warehouse in a coastal Florida town, living a nocturnal life with a stack of discarded books which he reads by candlelight. He flies at night, cloaked by the darkness, fishing the seas for his food and haunting the city dump for his books and magazines. And he just wants to be left alone..... And then one night, she dropped in; unexpected and unwanted. Fellow lab escapee Polly Proper is cunning and cute with the ability to spin a web like any spider. And she's got designs on Harper's warehouse; determined to run him off using her own curious abilities. The result is a battle of wits with control over the warehouse at stake. But the lab that created them both wants them back for a very ominous and dark purpose; one that threatens us all. Propinquity is tale of human connections and deep intrigue; a romantic story that soars on the wings of love, but unblinkingly dives into the depths of human depravity. It's a story that explores the value of life, love and what it really means to be human.
