Kiss Me Deadly

Midnight Sleeper
Raeder Lomax, the visionary author behind the captivating Midnight Sleeper Series, hails from the bustling, gritty streets of New York City—a place that often feels like a cage made of steel, tar, and the relentless symphony of urban noise. Yet, within this seeming confinement, there lies a complex melody, a lyrical essence that courses through the grid of avenues and towering buildings that stretch ambitiously towards the sky. Lomax's New York is a city that doesn't just demand physical navigation but requires a deeper, more nuanced understanding—one that transcends the surface to explore the heart and soul of the metropolis.
Drawing from a decade of observation and the profound experience of living in a city where every corner has a story, Lomax crafts narratives that are as rich and diverse as New York itself. The Midnight Sleeper Series is more than just a collection of tales; it's a guide to understanding the intricate tapestry of city life, where every moment and every encounter can lead to an adventure or a mystery waiting to be unraveled. Lomax's work reflects the vibrancy and dynamism of the Jazz Age, transporting readers back in time to explore the depths of human experience against the backdrop of one of history's most transformative periods.
Through his vivid storytelling, Lomax invites readers to delve into a world where the past and present merge, where the roar of coal-fired steam locomotives and the allure of speakeasies offer a glimpse into a bygone era that still resonates today. His ability to capture the essence of New York and its role in shaping the lives and destinies of his characters showcases not just his talent as a writer but his deep connection to the city that serves as both muse and backdrop for his gripping tales.
